The presenter was articulate and had a great knowledge of the New Testament. He was lively and interesting. The written material provided was detailed, as showed that great thought went into the course. If the presenter were a Saint, and studied the bible with prayer and fasting, the presentation would be more holy than academic, and convert people, increasing their faith, rather than giving them knowledge.

Understandable and interesting
I would give it an excellent, but disc 2 track 9 has a slight skip. Fr. Just gives a thorough and enlightening description of the New Testament. Very much appreciated his “both/and” slant over the “either/or” attitude. Enjoyed his understandable and interesting presentation.

One of NYK’s strongest programs on the NT
Fr. Just’s well presented lectures and detailed outline (with many links to other resource materials) provide the listener with a college/graduate level overview of the New Testament that is both informative and engaging. This program is an exceptional value and its content could not be found outside of a university theology department. In my view Fr. Just’s New Testament course is one of NYK’s strongest and best offerings.
