Feedback from our last course:
“I really enjoyed this course which made me think about the gospels in a totally new light. I want to do more reading and learning now about the historical context behind the writing of the gospels. Thank you for all the references to other texts and podcasts. I have already listened to quite a few podcasts that you have referred us to in the notes.”
