Christology Class

There is, perhaps, no more important question ever asked by any person than the one our Lord asked Peter: “Who do you say that I am?” The doctrine of Christ–Christology–lies at the very heart of our confession of faith. In this course, we will explore the contours of the person and work of Christ, focusing our attention on who Christ is and why he became man for our salvation.

Dr. Michael Lynch will be filming a seminary level class which he is teaching for the Davenant Institute on Mondays at Emmanuel from 6:00 -7:00 PM. Anyone is welcome to attend.

The last class will be May 8th.
