Question 1

Smith quotes Peter as offering a one sentence synopsis of the career and importance of Jesus: "He went about doing good." Explain what the phrase means and how it is supported by evidence in Smith and Novak. How do you respond to this as a presentation of Jesus? Is it sufficient? Would such a presentation challenge the idea that "Jesus is God"?

Question 2

Smith describes several aspects of the Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant divisions of Christianity. Choose and discuss one point at which the divisions seem deepest and one at which they do not.

Question 3

Novak includes several parables in section 22. Choose and comment on one which you find particular appropriate to the contemporary world. You might choose one which has particular personal significance or one which you "wish everyone would read and take seriously."
