CD:Where Does The Jesus Story Begin?
Description
These 10 CDs reflect on the four different beginnings the Gospels provide to the life of Jesus, offering the listeners keys that open up each of the Gospels in turn. Alongside that, there is the recurring question: where does your own story begin? Given who you are today, where would you say that story really started?
I followed the wonderful weekend at the Benedictine Belmont Abbey, where Fr. McBride gave six one-hour lectures on Luke's Gospel. The lecture that intrigued me was the one where he compared the four different beginnings of the Gospels. He argued that you could understand Luke better by seeing how he differed from the other three evangelists.
I bought this set of CDs as a result and have enjoyed them more than I can say. I have been teaching RE for years, and wish I had this resource years ago. The wisdom is sharp, clear, and simple when you hear it, though you realise that a mighty time of research sits behind what appears to be simple teaching. This is a brilliant reasource without a doubt.
