”How Did We Get” Video Series
Dr. Sarah Ruble’s video and discussion series “How Did We Get” was shown during October - December, 2023, but you can view them anytime! Click here to visit the series page with video links and study guide resources. The topics include: How did we get the doctrine of the Trinity?; How did we get the doctrine that Jesus was fully human and fully God?; How did we get a church separate from Judaism?; How did we get the doctrine of original sin?; How did we get the doctrine of justification by faith?; and How did we get to theological liberals and conservatives? The topics are fascinating and encompass questions we’ve all likely pondered. Dr. Ruble has an engaging teaching style, and her series “Race and Christianity in the United States” was well received.
