Metanarrative of Redemption
The Pastors' and Ministers' Development program of Bethel World Outreach Church resumes its academic schedule with the course, The Metanarrative of Redemption. The course is a reprise of God's Story of Redemption. [God's Story of Redemption was taught as a 26 week Sunday School course in 2010-2011.]
The course description is as follows: Students should grow in their theological understanding of the biblical metanarrative of redemption in terms of its grounding in the purposes of creation, its cohesiveness throughout Scripture, and its objectives in the present and coming age, and consequently grow in their awe of God, their eschatological hope for the return of Jesus Christ, and their desire to holistically engage in God’s mission now.
More information regarding textbooks, the class and reading schedule, as well as access to the lecture notes and lecture audio recordings may be accessed here, or via the link in the upper right column of this page.
