In New Testament Voices, we will listen to the voices within the Christian Scriptures, honing our ability to understand and research the historical contexts in which these texts first "spoke."  We will also develop our capacities to hear from voices through history that have read and interpreted these texts.  Finally, each student will progress in finding their own voice with which to speak about and proclaim the messages of these ancient writings for faith communities today.  This introductory course is for masters-level students.  Evaluation is based on in-class presentations, short papers, and quizzes.
