Lesson 1: The Historical Jesus

      Who
      was Jesus? What was his message? Why was he put to death? What
      are scholars today saying about Jesus? Lesson 4: The
      Gospel Writers’ Understanding of Jesus’ Resurrection

      Are
      the Gospels’ witness to Jesus’ resurrection credible?
      Are they in conflict with each other?
Lesson
      2: Jesus: The Resurrected Messiah

      Most
      messianic movements ended with the death of their founder. Why
      did the Jesus movement survive – not only survive, but flourish?
      What did Jesus’ followers mean when they said that Jesus
      was “raised from the dead”?  Lesson 5: Paul’s Understanding of
      Jesus’ Resurrection

      For
      Paul, Jesus’ resurrection was the first fruits of the new
      creation – and all who are “in Christ” will be
      raised like him, though their resurrection bodies will be different
      than their earthly bodies. What does Paul say about our to–be–
      resurrected bodies?
 Lesson
      3: The Jewish Understanding of Resurrection

      What
      did first-century Jews believe about resurrection? What caused
      Jesus’ (Jewish) followers to come to a different understanding
      of “resurrection”? Lesson 6: Jesus’
      Resurrection Today

      It is hard to account for the rise in Christianity if
      Jesus was not raised from the dead. What about today? How are
      we to understand Jesus’ resurrection?
