Where Does the New Testament Come From? The Story of Salvation, or the Experience of God's Compassion in Jesus Christ

Fr. Larry Hennessey talks about how the New Testament came to be and its core message of how Jesus redeems us from the fall of humanity. This story, which is part of each of our lives, is expressed in an epic fashion in the first part of the Book of Genesis, and our redemption is expressed in a variety of ways all expressing how Jesus gives us the primal experience of God's compassion.
