Life of Christ 1

The Life of Christ, Part 1 covers the first half of the Gospel narrative, leading up to the week prior to the Passion week. This book is designed to understand and appreciate all that Jesus said and did. It provides a blend of explanations of the details surrounding each incident, prophetic fulfillments from the Old Testament, explanations of the customs of the day, and rich spiritual insights for today's Christian living. Pastor Sell has taught this course approximately 25 times spanning a period of 50 years, each time adding new insights and better explanations of the most amazing story ever told.

This is a detailed study of the life of Christ through the reading of the four Gospels. It covers the basic knowledge of the major events in Jesus' earthly ministry. The first half will address the life of Jesus through the Galilean ministry. The second half of the course (Life of Christ 2) covers the life of Christ from the later Judean ministry through His Ascension.
