For awhile now I have been having a growing interest in the cultural, political, and social construct of the middle east in Classical times. My fascination with this has made me all the more fascinated particularly with the New Testament era. This involves an intimate knowledge of the Intertestamental Period as well as the different schools of Jewish thought (Essenes, Sadducees, Pharisees, and Zealots) and Jewish life/heritage in general around the time of Christ.
As such, it is possible I might switch my program from Theology to New Testament studies. The shift won't affect my classes (currently they are all gen. ed), so I will talk to my professors and academic adviser about whether it is a wise move in relation to my desire to teach (I don't see why not). The only thing I could see it changing is the material I would be teaching (naturally) and I would actually want that.
