Living Faith. Exploring the Essentials of Christianity

 

Sessions

References

 

In this ten part video series, Living Faith (additional link), we survey the essentials of Christianity for all who seek a renewed, deeper, or more mature understanding of the Christian faith.

Each meeting consists of a 25 minute video with Anglican bishop and theologian Tom Wright, followed by discussion among ourselves.

Bishop Wright taught New Testament studies at Oxford University, Cambridge University, McGill University and Regent College for 20 years. He has written over thirty books and has received both academic acclaim and praise for his eloquence and transparency when writing on the popular level. Christianity Today named him as one of the top five theologians in the world. The third volume of his magisterial series Christian Origins and the Question of God won the 2003 Theologos Award as the book of the year.
