Reply To: In the first lecture, Dr. McDermott teaches that the Bible is one story, and that God upholds his covenant with the Jewish people to this very day. Was this what you were taught growing up? If not, how will this insight change the way you read the bible going forward?

Patrick, I too was tremendously blessed with parents who truly cared about placing the Word of God first in my instruction. It was always impressed on me that everything I was heard should be examined against scripture. Often I think I take for granted how blessed I am to have had a heritage of faith that always prioritized my relationship with the Lord.

I similarly agree that these courses have been a really helpful way to deepen my understanding of the Faith and to draw connections about teachings that I had maybe heard, but not fully appreciated.
