Winter Bible Workshop- Jesus's Resurrection: The World Upside Down

Start the new year by diving deeply into Scripture with Candler instructor Dr. Ebby Arnold. Come enjoy rich learning, lively discussion, and warm fellowship—with refreshments provided!

Course Description: This class will look at the topic of resurrection and how it was understood in the ancient world, both in the Greco-Roman and Jewish view. By examining Paul's first letter to the Corinthians and Mark's resurrection narrative, we will explore how the resurrection of Jesus changed the paradigm of new life after death. Finally, we will consider how these ideas might shape our
corporate and individual lives as witness to both the resurrection of Jesus and the final resurrection to come.

Instructor: Elizabeth Arnold, PhD
Dr. Elizabeth “Ebby” (EE-BEE) Arnold serves as Scholar-in-Residence for The Candler Foundry, where she is the creator of the Foundations in Faith and Leadership online certificate program for community and church-based theological education. Arnold also teaches courses at Candler and in the Foundry’s Courses in the Community program.
Arnold’s current research projects include investigating the nature and function of church conflict in Paul’s letters to the Corinthians and exploring how the narrative of Luke-Acts functions as a model for interpreting scripture.
