Another Teaching Company course, this time "Great World Religions: Christianity." I finished this quite a while ago and just haven't got around to saying anything about it until now. This course is taught by Luke Timothy Johnson, who kept me awake and does a good job of pointing out the remarkable things about Christianity. Even though I've had very little formal exposure to Christianity, growing up in America still makes it a fish-water experience, and so it was interesting to get an academic perspective on it.
