Adult Faith Formation Opportunities
The Bible Timeline provides a clear understanding of the underlying Scriptural narrative, which is essential to all Bible reading and study. The 24-part Bible Timeline Bible Study dives deep into the Biblical story. A combination of individual reading and study, group discussion, and lecture commentary guides participants as they read through the 14 narrative books of The Bible Timeline and discover the meaning of each in light of the whole.
This Bible Timeline study is basic enough to suit those who haven't studied the Bible before while at the same time offering ways to go deeper that will challenge the Bible study veteran. Salvation history is covered from its beginning in Genesis through the coming of Christ and the establishment of the Catholic Church.
This opportunity will be held on Tuesdays from 6:30 to 7:30pm at the Faith Formation Center starting September 14 and going through November 23, resuming January 4 and going through March 29 (dates are subject to change). Cost is $50.00. Facilitated by Fr. Paul Wolf.
Building directly on the foundation laid in The Bible Timeline, Step Two in The Great Adventure Bible Study Series, Matthew: The King and His Kingdom, shows how Jesus builds on the foundation laid in the Old Testament to inaugurate the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Experience how Jesus relived the life and struggles of Israel to become the faithful and victorious King, and see how the promises of the Old Testament are fulfilled in Christ and his Apostles. This series is an ideal follow-up study to the basic narrative of Scripture taught in The Bible Timeline course.
This opportunity will be held on Tuesdays from 6:45 to 7:45pm at the Faith Formation Center starting September 14 and going through November 23, resuming January 4 and going through March 29 (dates are subject to change). Cost is $35.00. Facilitated by Fr. Paul Wolf.
The Book of Acts shows the Church, enlivened by the Holy Spirit, teaching, preaching, healing, and restoring outcasts in the same way that Jesus did on Earth. The Acts of the Apostles provides a historic framework for understanding the rest of the New Testament. Paul's letters in particular come alive in a new way when they are read within the context of the Acts narrative.
This 20-part session will be held Tuesdays from 7 to 8 pm at the Faith Formation Center starting September 14 and going through November 23, resuming January 4 and going through March 1 (dates are subject to change). Cost is $35.00. Facilitated by Fr. Paul Wolf.
