Abstract

This dissertation involved an educational program of eight study/discussion sessions helping adults clarify their understanding of Jesus Christ. Five hypotheses were tested: 1) participants will show a greater acceptance of the humanity of Jesus Christ, as indicated in a comparison of their pre- and posttest questionnaires and on their end-of-session questionnaires; 2) participants will be less likely to believe that Jesus was 'complete in his deity,' and more likely to believe that he was 'complete in his humanity;' 3) participants will develop a distinction between 'Jesus' and 'the Christ;' 4) an increased integration of their faith; and 5) a greater clarity in their understanding of Jesus Christ. Hypotheses 1, 2 and 3 are supported statistically and qualitatively. Hypothesis 4 is questionable. Hypothesis 5 is supported qualitatively.
