After 2,000 years, Christianity is the world's largest religion and continues to prosper and grow. What accounts for its continued popularity?

In these twenty-four lectures, Professor Johnson maintains that the most familiar aspects of Christianity-its myths, institutions, ideas and morality-are only its outer "husk." He takes you on a journey to find the "kernel" of Christianity's appeal: religious experience. You'll travel back to Christianity's origins during its first 300 years to identify the elements that first made it appealing and which still hold the secret to its ability to attract new followers.

Professor Johnson employs scholarly techniques that have only recently been applied to religion. In introducing early Christian religious experience, Professor Johnson looks at questions that are new and intellectually exciting in the study of religion. Was Christ the founder of Christianity? Was Christianity's early growth due to his life and works or to his followers' powerful experience of his death and resurrection, their sense of having been transformed by the Holy Spirit?

By combining such disciplines as history, the social sciences, and comparative literary analysis, you'll look at religious experience and behavior from a fresh perspective. You'll consider a variety of theories developed by the philosophers Alfred North Whitehead and Immanuel Kant, Emil Durkheim, the founder of sociology, and Sigmund Freud. And to better understand religious experience in Christianity, you'll also study it in the two religions with which early Christianity co-existed: Greco-Roman paganism and Judaism.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helps Me Understand How the Roots of Christianity.Reviewed in the United States on May 18, 2015

Length: just under 12-1/2 hours.

This lecture series was precisely what I've been seeking for many years. The lectures commence with a discussion, in deep detail, of the 300 years preceding the birth of and rise of Jesus's ministry. This puts the time period into perspective and helps explain how the Old Testament came to be a part of the Bible. What I mean us, he explains about the Greek translation of Torah, used by Jews in diaspora, and why it is in Greek, not Hebrew.

Only once one can come to grips with that, can one begin to see life as an early follower of Jesus. Further, since there was no Bible in use during the, uh, Big Bang explosive growth of Christianity. It is of paramount importance to understand how the early adopters would evolve into the widely differing accounts and traditions among the societies in which Christianity would grow and thrive.

What most comes to mind is the lack of an army, a temple, and, even, the lack of a home for the church.

I thoroughly appreciated the wealth of information contained within this lecture series.

I'm going to listen to his lectures about Saint Paul, but not until after listening to the latest Walt Longmire story by Craig Johnson.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Evenhanded Introduction to Earliest ChristianityReviewed in the United States on June 24, 2011

Luke Timothy Johnson, a Roman Catholic NT scholar provides here an enjoyable evenhanded introduction to earliest Christianity.

Johnson's approach, according to him, is to avoid the maximalist (traditional Christian) and minimalist (tradional liberal/revisionist) ways at looking at Christianity and instead goes for an approach that takes the experiences of the early Christians seriously but doesn't really go any further.

This approach will of course appease neither side although I found the course all the more better for it - avoiding the traditional discussions on historicity and instead jumps straight to analyzing earliest Christian beliefs and practices. Of course, one is often tempted to ask "But did this really happen or not?!"

Still, a recommended audio course that introduces Christianity as it began.

Note: Some prior familiarity to the New Testament and Ancient Near East history is helpful but not necessary. Johnson does well to explain the concepts and terms that he introduces into the discussion.

As ancient literature and a cornerstone of the Christian faith, the New Testament has exerted a powerful religious and cultural impact. But how much do we really know about its origins?

In this concise, engaging book, noted New Testament scholar Luke Timothy Johnson takes listeners on a journey back to the time of the early Roman Empire, when the New Testament was written in ordinary Greek (koine) by the first Christians. The author explains how the Gospels, Acts of the Apostles, and Revelation evolved into the canon of sacred writings for the Christian religion, and how they reflect a reinterpretation of the symbolic world and societal forces of first-century Greco-Roman and Jewish life. Equally important, listeners will find both a positive and critical reading of the New Testament-one that looks beyond its theological orientation to reveal an often-surprising diversity of viewpoints. This one-of-a-kind introduction engages four distinct dimensions of the earliest Christian writings - anthropological, historical, religious, and literary - to provide listeners with a broad conceptual and factual framework. In addition, the book takes an in-depth look at compositions that have proven to be particularly relevant over the centuries, including Paul's letters to the Corinthians and Romans and the Gospels of John, Mark, Matthew, and Luke.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great explanation of what the NT is all aboutReviewed in the United States on August 7, 2012
Verified Purchase
Whether you are a Christian, of another faith, or of no faith, this book can can help you understand the NT...perhaps even learn much that surprises you. It is well written, easy to understand but not simplistic, and interesting. I have read a lot of theology, and I have taken many religion classes, and yet I feel that this short book opened my eyes, or helped me organize my understanding, in a way that had not happened before. In a relatively short book Johnson gives one a very comprehensive explanation of the NT and of the early followers of Jesus and what they believed and how the canon of the NT came to exist. Johnson neither slams religion down one's throat nor apologizes for Christianity, as one other reviewer seem to think. Johnson gives a balanced objective overview of a book that has influenced more people than any other book in history...for better or worse. You will not be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Highly Informative and Inspiring NT IntroductionReviewed in the United States on September 3, 2010
Verified Purchase
I stand in awe of Johnson's ability to write so concisely and clearly and to do so with inspiration and enthusiasm. While we have the usual territory to be covered in a NT Introduction, there are some pleasant surprises, e.g., 

• his superb treatment of Hebrews and the Letter of James. 
• Of the discussions of the Gospels I appreciated most what he had to say about apocalyptic Mark. 
• Because this is 'a very short introduction,' he didn't get into as much depth with Paul as I would have liked. Thankfully, though, he did not ride his special hobby horse on the authenticity of 1-2 Timothy and Titus, 
• but stuck with positions generally accepted by the majority of NT scholars.

What is the audience for this tiny book? Clergy needing a quick review. Interested lay people who want a general overview before plunging into one or the other NT books in some detail.

This little book by a well-known authority provides a scholarly yet very readable and brief introduction to the "why" of the New Testament. 

Not in any way a Reader's Digest version; nor is it a quick read, but one to be read at leisure, re-read, and to be brought out again when studying the New Testament or early history of the Christian church.

Very suitable for mature minds trying to make sense of ancient and initially disconnected appearing writings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fair and Balanced, Something for AllReviewed in the United Kingdom on May 7, 2014
Verified Purchase

This "Very Short Introduction" is written by Luke Timothy Johnson (LTJ), a former monk who is now a professor of New Testament studies, and does exactly what it says on the tin.

The work is divided into 11 Chapters.

Chapter 2 contextualises the NT in its contemporary setting, explaining the difference in belief and lifestyle of Jew and Gentile.

Chapter 3 focusses on the resurrection, and whilst not suggesting exactly what happened, LTJ lets the reader know that *something* significant must have happened in order for the Christian faith to begin. That *something*, he claims, is that the disciples of Jesus came to believe he had risen from the dead, but he refrains from passing personal comment on that issue.

Chapters 6-9 provide an overview of most of the documents of the NT, with only Jude and 1 + 2 Peter being passed over.
Chapter 6 looks at the Synoptic Gospels, going through each in turn.
Chapter 7 focusses on the life and works of Paul, and as a representation of his work provides a great mini-exegesis of his theology in 1 Corinthians and Romans.
Chapter 8 "Two Hidden Treasures" provides an exegesis of James and Hebrews.
Chapter 9 finishes this section looking at a Johannine school of thought as found in the Gospel of John, 1,2,3 John and Revelation, again, providing a mini-explanation of these works and their contexts.

Chapter 10 discusses the creation and importance of the NT canon in brief detail. Readers should then be aware of CE Hill's "Who Chose the Gospels?" for more info on this one.

Chapter 11 provides a neat summary of the continuing importance of the NT in contemporary society, despite the personal failings of Christians, and the ambiguities of the text that have led to oppression in Christ's name.

Overall this book is a brilliant introduction, fair and balanced, that presents a broad scholarly consensus of the relevant issues involved, whilst retaining some individual perspectives. However, because of this "catch-all" approach, there are several things that both liberal and conservative historians and believers may find disagreement with.

A liberal audience won't like (among other things): 

• A. his suggestion that Paul made use of an amanuensis, so that the Pastoral Letters may indeed be genuine, 
• B. his understanding that the "Gospel" of Thomas is most likely late 2nd century and 
• C. that the canon of the NT represents the best and earliest of our documents about the initial phase of Christian history.

A conservative audience probably has more things to take issue with, but hopefully by reading will learn the difference between accepted church tradition and the current position of NT scholarship. For example: 

A. he dates 2 Peter to the 2nd Century, 

B. suggests that Millenialism is a gross misreading of the genre of Revelation, 

C. calling the Holy Spirit an "energy field" several times, 

D. dating the Gospels 'late' EG 70AD or later, 

E. suggesting that Daniel was actually written c.167BC and not during the Babylonian exile.

There is much of use in here, and it overall provides a fair introduction to key themes and topics of NT studies that both Christian and non-Christian, layman and scholar will find of use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Undoubtedly handy, concise but sometimes misleading about a consensus

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 30, 2012
Verified Purchase

As with others in the series, this tight volume packs a lot of knowledge and understanding into a relatively short book.
It is divided into clear, useful chapter headings: some of these are overall questions, how the New Testament got put together, or what hermeneutics are applied to it; others are on individual sections: one on the Synoptic Gospels, one on Johannine literature, one on St Paul's letters etc..

The challenge here is that there can be a blur between when we are reading Johnson's summary of received opinion, and when we are reading Johnson's own personal take on something. For example, he describes the Gospel of Mark as in its essence a piece of Apocalyptic literature, with a few stories and life incidents of Jesus thrown in: his argument comes from emphasisising the otherwise slightly out of place Mark 13, full of wild apocalyptic imagery. Now Johnson may be right, and his view is well-argued, but I would say that his take on it is well left of centre in terms of how scholars in general view Mark's Gospel. (Yes, Mark 13's apocalpytic imagery is important, but there is a human truth in the Passion story and a focus on the kingdom of God in most of it that doesn't square with the book being primarily apocalyptic.)

When one picks up "A very short introduction", I believe one is looking more for scholarly consensus than an author's own hobbyhorses.

That said, I may have slightly overstressed this aspect. Johnson is excellent at compressing information and argument into a tight format, and - when one is writing this concisely - inevitably one cannot be entirely evenhanded as otherwise the book would be tedious and overlong.

He is very balanced in terms of commitment to faith: this can be read by believers and non-believers without alienating either and would be good for keen A-level students, undergraduates just starting the New Testament who need a bit of a basic overview, or just anyone with an interest. It might especially be good for someone who goes to church, listens to sermons but wants a little more learning to go with what they hear.
Very good, but not perfect.

Early life[edit]

A native of Park Falls, Wisconsin, Johnson was educated in public and parochial schools. A Benedictine monk and priest at St. Joseph Abbey, St. Benedict, Louisiana from 1963 to 1972, he received a B.A. in Philosophy from Notre Dame Seminary in 1966, a M.Div. in Theology from Saint Meinrad School of Theology in 1970, an M.A. in Religious Studies from Indiana University, and a Ph.D. in New Testament from Yale University in 1976.^[1] He has taught at St. Meinrad, Saint Joseph Seminary College, Yale Divinity School, and Indiana University.

Academic career[edit]

Johnson is a critic of the Jesus Seminar, having taken stances against Burton Mack, Robert Funk and John Dominic Crossan in discussions of the "historical Jesus".^[2] Johnson objects to the Seminar's historical methodology. He is also a proponent of an early dating for the Epistle of James, arguing:

The Letter of James also, according to the majority of scholars who have carefully worked through its text in the past two centuries, is among the earliest of New Testament compositions. It contains no reference to the events in Jesus' life, but it bears striking testimony to Jesus' words. Jesus' sayings are embedded in James' exhortations in a form that is clearly not dependent on the written Gospels.^[3]

In some areas, Johnson disagrees with Roman Catholic teaching. He has argued that "same-sex unions can be holy and good" and is in favor of "full recognition of gay and lesbian persons within the Christian communion."^[4]

Johnson has produced lectures on early Christianity and ancient Greek philosophy for The Teaching Company. ^[5]

Recognition[edit]

He is the recipient of the 2011 University of Louisville Grawemeyer Award in Religion.^[6]

Personal life[edit]

Johnson married Joy Randazzo in 1974 and is stepfather to six children and father of one.
