Person and Work of Christ | Dr. Kevin Vanhoozer (Spring 2025)
When Jesus turned toward his disciples and asked "But who do you say that I am?" He was launching a conversation that would extend beyond his earthly life. We're still wrestling with it today. This 6 week class will explore the person and work of Jesus Christ. We will examine how a human being could be both fully God and fully man, and we will gain a greater understanding of His life, His death and His resurrection.
This course will cover a variety of topics, including: Diety and Humanity of Christ, Virgin Birth, Work of Christ/Atonement,
This 6-week course begins Wednesday, March 12 and ends April 23. (Spring Break: Mar 26th)
6:30-8pm at the Lake Forest Campus (Room A201) 100 N Waukegan Rd. Lake Forest, IL.
