For this class, Dr. Michael Decker will be using "The Last Week: What the Gospels Really Teach About Jesus's Final Days in Jerusalem" by Marcus Borg and John Dominic Crossan. Books will be available in the church office when you register. Please read thru page 31 prior to the first class.

The class schedule will be:
Tuesdays,
Feb 6 - 10-11am
Feb 13 - 10-11:30am
Feb 20 - 10-11:30am
Feb 27 - 10-11am

Using the gospel of Mark as their guide, Borg and Crossan present a day-by-day account of Jesus's final week of life. The Jesus they describe is a new moral hero, a more dangerous Jesus than the one enshrined in the church's traditional teachings.
