Christology

Teachers: Jerry Frumento '79
Open to: Seniors
Length: 1 Semester

This Course asks the question “Who is Jesus?” This investigation begins with looking at who Jesus was, in his historical context. We will examine and research the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. In an attempt to know who, the ‘historical’ Jesus was, we will soon realize the limits of that ‘quest’ and shift our focus to who the early believers understood and experienced Jesus to have been. We will look at a variety of ‘Christology’s’ attempting to understand this real ‘mystery’ of the incarnation of God, how Jesus Christ is just that for the Christian Catholic believer, and how this can lead us to a real and vital relationship with God. And to take it a step further, we will then look at how nurturing this relationship calls us to live “in” the ‘Kingdom of God’ which Jesus preached!
