This week, we wrapped up the New Testament by looking at a couple of key narratives in the book of Acts related to the spread of the Gospel and Paul's missionary journeys. Then, we spent some time exploring some of the New Testament letters and how to interpret them well by placing them in their proper historical and literary contexts. We also spent a day discussing apocalyptic literature, and how this unique style uses symbols to communicate deeper truths about God, the world, and God's plan for the redemption of all things.
