THST 3200 Prophecy and Bible in New Zealand

4 semester hours

New Zealand is not only one of the most beautiful countries in the world–but one of the most fascinating. In this course, students will be introduced to the Prophets of the Old Testament but then explore how the Maori (the indigenous people of New Zealand) uniquely engaged the Prophetic tradition of the Bible as they embraced Christianity. Maori Prophets arose in the 19th Century, modeled heavily on the Biblical Prophets, and these Prophets led fascinating and inspiring movements that continue to inspire the Maori (and those of us who learn about them) to this day. Summer Only–New Zealand Study Abroad course.
