***Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we had to hit the pause button midway through our Lenten Bible Study. We will rejoice when we are able to resume our learning and reconvene our community of scholars! In the meantime, if you are hungering to continue reading and studying the Bible, we recommend visiting The Sunday Website at St. Louis University. Click here to view this excellent resource for studying the Bible in rhythm with the lectionary (the Sunday readings.) One you select a Sunday, you'll find a treasure trove of scholarly essays that will help you mine the historical context, literary characteristics and theological content of that Sunday's readings. You'll also find beautifully written spiritual reflections, discussion questions and even poetry to connect the Word of God to your life today.

Our seasonal mini-courses introduce participants to the literary characteristics, historical context, and theological content of the books of the Bible. With the help of scholarly commentaries, trained facilitators, and a lively group of life-long learners, we dive deeply into these ancient sacred writings, mining their enduring wisdom in the light of our own lives and shared faith community. No prior experience or education needed! All are welcome! |
