Bible II Semester 1 Final Project: My Gospel

For this project you will be making your own version of the Gospel. You will not be making up stories about Jesus rather you will be choosing ones that are in the Gospels to put in your own version of the Gospel. You will have to pick an audience and a focus. You will then choose stories to include that relate to your audience and/or your focus. You will NOT put the actual text of the Bible in your Gospel (just an outline of it with the reference and titles of the stories). However, you will be writing a brief explanation of the stories and how each one of them relates to either your audience and/or your focus.

Title: You will need to give your Gospel a Title
Introduction:

Background: A brief description of what happened during the Intertestamentary  Period to provide the background to the Gospel.
Author: A brief bio about you as the author of this Gospel (one who put it together)
Audience: A description of your audience (must be a specific group of people or person and cannot be the same as one of the 4 Gospels, and should be a contemporary audience)
Focus: A description of your focus, the more specific the better (should relate to your audience and cannot be the same as one of the 4 Gospels)

Outline of 20 stories or sermons from the 4 gospels that relate to your audience and/or focus (You must have stories from more than one Gospel and they cannot just be individual verses). You will need to put the title from the Bible (and if you want you can give it your own title too) and the Reverence (book, chapter, verses) DO NOT PUT THE TEXT FROM THE BIBLE. These stories must relate to your focus and/or your audience. You will need to number your stories in the outline.
Explanation: After each of the above stores (as part of the outline, a sub point below the reference and title) you will need to write an explanation for how each story you picked relates to either your audience or your focus (to do this you will need to explain a little about the story).

Example of outline for a gospel written to teachers:

1.John 1:19-28 (John the Baptist Denies Being the Christ)

A role model teacher should claim the truth and only the truth when it applies and they should not credit themselves where they don’t deserve credit. In this passage John the Baptist is asked if he is the messiah or a prophet. He could have won himself some status if he had said yes, but he did not. He was honest and humbly did god’s work.

·         The Gospel: At the end you will need to include the Gospel story (Jesus Death and resurrection) pick the references from one or more of the Gospels. These will not count as part of your 20 stories. You do not have to explain how these relate to your audience and focus but you will need to include a brif explanation of what The Gospel is (what Jesus’ death and resurrection did for us).
 

 
Suggestions for audiences and focus
•      To Haitians – to show that God loves all people
•      To a specific group of teenagers – to show that Jesus is not boring
•      To a person you know who is suffering - to show that God cares and suffered for us
•      To models – to realize the importance of the heart not just our looks
