Christ the Savior (Christology Course): Video Series

From the moment Jesus began his ministry, people have questioned his identity and the significance of his life, death, and resurrection. This course delves into the central question Jesus asked his disciples in Matthew: Who do you say that I am?

Through an exploration of Scripture and theological debates throughout history, we examine two key perspectives: Jesus as the fulfillment of the law or as the promise of salvation. We’ll navigate early Christological controversies, heresies, and atonement theories—unpacking how different interpretations of Jesus’ identity shape our understanding of faith.

Join us as we approach these questions evangelically, grounding our discussion in Scripture and wrestling with the profound reality of Christ’s person and work.
