SEI Short Course: Holy Spirit, Pt.1 Biblical Paths

SEI Short Course: on the Holy Spirit within the Trinity

The latest in the series of online short courses provided by the Scottish Episcopal Institute looks at the Holy Spirit within the Trinity, and is led by Anna-Claar Thomasson-Rosingh, Director of Studies at the Institute.

The course is made up of three roughly thirty-minute video’s with questions for reflection or discussion. We will explore our theology of the Holy Spirit; we will study pneumatology, which is the official theological term for talking of the Holy Spirit.

16 September: Biblical Paths

In the first session we will discover how the bible speaks of the Holy Spirit. We will start with historically one of the oldest texts in the New Testament that brings together the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in Romans 8. We will then trace back through our bibles to a study of the story of Pentecost and the Spirit in the Gospels. We will look especially at the relationship between Jesus and the Spirit. Finally, we will look at the Spirit in creation as we find it in the Old Testament.
