I thoroughly enjoyed this course about an interesting character in bible history, Pilate. I learned so much about him that I had never heard, and the instructor, Bishop Lewter is AMAZING. I like is style of teaching and have signed up for his other courses! It has been a pleasure indeed to take this course!!!
