Summary
Look beyond the superficial understandings of Jesus to reexamine his powerful claims, teachings, and the events surrounding his life.
The modern world portrays Jesus in many ways for many reasons. But in order to see and understand the real Jesus and what the Gospels say about him, we have to take a closer look and be willing to accept him on his own controversial and challenging terms.
In this nine-session study with access to streaming video sessions, Mark Clark will guide you and your group through some of the essential aspects of the person and work of the historical Jesus of Nazareth, including:
- His parables and miracles.
- The historical and biblical accounts of him.
- His death and resurrection.
- His claim to be God.
Based on the commentary and reflections of his book,
The Problem of Jesus, Mark Clark helps us come to a truer understanding of Jesus and the often-unexamined cost of following him.
