It gave a very good introduction and summary of the New Testament Books. But this is not the only course I have enjoyed. among those I have listened and watched so far. Much appreciated are The Old Testament, The Mass, The history of the Mass, The Psalms (Both) ….

Father King is a great lecturer. He is very knowledgeable with a very pleasant delivery. His course has helped me more than any other source in improving my understanding of the New Testament. He is gifted at explaining concepts and does so with a sense of humor which makes it most enjoyable.

Father Kings lectures are both informative and thought provoking. He clearly has a real mastery of the history, context and content of the books contained within the New Testament. This would have been a great introductory course for either a group or individual study of the New Testament, had it not been for the quality of the DVDs. Eight of the DVDs continually pause and then skip ahead several minutes during the lectures, only four DVDs played properly from beginning to end! I purchased this course last October, during a sale, and planned on using it as a study guide during the next Lenten season; unfortunately, by then the 90-day guarantee period had expired. Buyer beware!
