We are beginning a new Bible Study here at San Jose written by noted theologians Dr. Scott Hahn and Mark Shea. Please take advantage of this opportunity to become better acquainted with God's Word, and to cultivate a personal relationship with our Lord. Our goal in studying the Bible is to gain a better understanding of God's will in our lives, as well as to share the wealth of information and spiritual nourishment to be found in the Bible. If we call ourselves Christians, we have the duty to know what that means. The Magisterium of the Church and the Holy Bible are the definitive respondants to the answer of the meaning of Christianity.
This new Bible Study will be markedly different than those that we have had in the past, including our recently completed study of the Gospel of Matthew. These previous studies were a series of Bible lectures given by the leader, and as a result did not lend themselves to group interaction. The new format will hopefully promote greater interaction between all members, thereby providing a richer experience for all involved.
This Bible Study is meant to provide a structural environment for forming a foundation of faith. Since this is a Catholic Bible Study, we have the advantage of viewing these scriptures in the light and guidance of our Holy Catholic Church. All you need to bring with you is a Bible (preferably the New American translation), writing material, and a spirit open to the will of the Lord. Also, the $20 material fee covers all handouts for the entire 28 week period. Please feel free to contact me via any of the following methods. May the Love of Christ, the Enlightenment of the Holy Spirit, and the Blessing of God the Father be with each and every one of you.
