This course presents the Old Testament foundations of the theology of God's people and introduces various perspectives on the New Testament church based on this foundation. In addition to a basic systematic survey, students will be introduced to selected Gospel and epistolary texts that portray the mystery of the church in its essential, institutional, charismatic, and soteriological dimensions.
