Publisher's summary

What does it really mean to say Jesus'' life, death and resurrection “saved” us from our sins? How is one to think about other world religions, given the claims of the Catholic Church about the uniqueness of Jesus Christ's role in the salvation of all of human history?

In this unique audio series from acclaimed theologian, professor, and author Fr. Brian McDermott, you will discover extraordinary answers to these questions and others from scripture and 2,000 years of tradition. The lectures will address the fundamental issues of the Catholic faith in a directly relevant way.

Under McDermott’s guidance, you will explore the development of the Catholic understanding of the meaning of Jesus Christ. This area of theology, called Christology, forms a central place in the more general area of theological thought called systematic theology.

You will trace Christian thinking about Jesus Christ from the days of his ministry in first-century Palestine through the days of the early Church, the medieval period, the reformation, and modern times. Christians profess that Jesus is fully human and fully divine, while distinguishing him from God the Father and the Holy Spirit. Jesus, Christians affirm, was one personal reality, webbed into the whole human race, the planet Earth, and the entire cosmos. Explore these varying perspectives with the author of Word Become Flesh: Dimensions of Christology.

This course is part of the Learn25 Collection.

Excellent professor

This audio theology course is well organized and thoughtfully presented. Fr. Brian McDermott clearly understands the Christology well and is able to communicate the complexities with insight and grace. At times his accent seems a bit strong, but he uses clear examples and teachers with energy. Taught from a Catholic theological perspective, the course is well-balanced. A perfect Christology course for ministers and laypersons interested in learning more about the Trinity and about Jesus as funny human and fully divine.
