PERSONAL BIBLE COURSES
Fran has developed three Bible courses over his forty years of teaching that walk you through the Story of God in the Scriptures in the order it likely happened. Each has its own course notebook and QuickTime video lectures.
The links on this page will take you directly to the print-on-demand company used for these books, as well as the videos that are required for each of the three Bible courses.
LEARN THE BIBLE ON YOUR OWN
Getting The Big Picture is the first part of Fran’s 3-part biblical literacy series. It is a 13-hour chronological study of the Old Testament. In other words, you’ll be studying the Old Testament in the order in which it likely occurred. The course consists of a 140 page course notebook, and thirteen 1-hour lectures. The lectures are Quicktime movies that contain the audio of Fran teaching, synced with the beautiful multimedia slides that have become Fran’s signature teaching method.
The course notebook contains 30 pages for note-taking while watching and listening to the lectures, as well as the full course content from the 36-hour course from which this was “distilled.” You’ll have a wonderful resource for future study with this amazing course notebook. It is full of timelines and key people for all the major empires from the days of Abraham up to the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple during the lifetimes of Zerubbabel, Ezra and Nehemiah.
NOTE: Each of the three courses in Fran’s biblical literacy series is dependent upon both the Quicktime lectures and the course notebook. You’ll need both to complete each of the three courses.
Yeshua In Four Dimensions is the Part II of Fran’s 3-part biblical literacy series. Like Part I, it too is a 13-hour, chronological study of the life of Yeshua (Jesus) from the four Gospels simultaneously. It also consists of a 160 page course notebook, and thirteen 1-hour lectures. The lectures are Quicktime movies that contain the audio of Fran teaching, synced with the beautiful multimedia slides that have become Fran’s signature teaching method.
The course notebook contains 30 pages for note-taking while watching and listening to the lectures, as well as the full course content from the 36-hour course from which this was “distilled.” You’ll have a wonderful resource for future study with this amazing course notebook. It is full of amazing information on Roman culture and the impact of Rome’s presence on God’s people, as well as background on key players in the world of Yeshua.
REMINDER: Each of the three courses in Fran’s biblical literacy series is dependent upon both the Quicktime lectures and the course notebook. You’ll need both to complete each of the three courses.
To The Ends Of The Earth is the Part III of Fran’s 3-part biblical literacy series. Like Parts I and II, it too is a 13-hour, chronological study of the New Testament from the Book of Acts through the Book of Revelation. It also has a 140 page course notebook, and the 13 Quicktime lectures that the previous 2 courses had.
The course notebook is full of amazing information on Greek and Roman culture, and historical insight on the cities of Paul’s missionary journeys and his letters. The course follows the Book of Acts for most of its chronology, examining Paul’s letters in the likely order he wrote them.
REMINDER: Each of the three courses in Fran’s biblical literacy series is dependent upon both the Quicktime lectures and the course notebook. You’ll need both to complete each of the three courses.
The Fullness Of Time is the complete reference note from all three courses combined into a single volume. There are no lectures to watch, and the 30 pages of note-taking in the front of each of the three course notebooks is absent.
This resource consists of all of Fran’s teaching notes for the courses in their original 36-hour format. His “marginal notes” from his own notebook have been converted to over 800 footnotes as well.
This is an excellent resource if you decide you do NOT want to do any of the individual courses, because it contains all the “Extended Material” from each of the other three course notebooks.
Do NOT purchase this resource if you intend to work your way through the three courses above. You’ll have everything that’s in it with the course notebooks.
