Dear Fellow American,
I hope you’re having a good day. I’m writing with some exciting news.
Hillsdale College’s popular online course, “The Genesis Story: Reading Biblical Narratives,” is available on DVD.
In this six-lecture course, you’ll explore some of the major themes of Genesis, including the complex relationship between God and man, and what it reveals about divine and human nature.
“The Genesis Story” is taught by Hillsdale College professor of English Justin Jackson, who has taught the subject to undergraduate students here at the College for 15 years. This course aims to deepen a student’s theological understanding of the Old Testament by revealing the literary beauty and complexity of the text.
The course begins with a lecture and introduction by the President of Hillsdale College, Dr. Larry P. Arnn, in which he explains why we teach the Book of Genesis at Hillsdale College and why it’s important to both faith and higher education.
Then, Dr. Jackson explains the four relationships that dominate the Book of Genesis: God and creation, God and man, man and man, and man and creation.
These relationships are explored in the narratives of Adam and Eve, Abraham and Sarah, Abraham and Isaac, Jacob and Esau, and finally, Joseph.
This course on DVD is perfect for viewing in your home with your family or for use in small groups such as Bible studies and book clubs.
For your tax-deductible gift of $100 or more in support of Hillsdale College, you’ll receive the DVD as our thank you.
