In this course, economist Jerry Bowyer examines the cultural and historical backdrop of Jesus’ earthly ministry, considering its effect on the delivery of his message. In Part 1, Bowyer focuses on the location-based economy, the predominant occupations, and the historical context of Galilee. Through this, he explains how Jesus adapted (but didn’t change) his message to the hearers in each place, giving an example for advisors to emulate in working with clients of different backgrounds.
