Little Rock Class on John Tonight!


I am looking forward to seeing everyone this evening--re-establishing friendships and forging new ones. It was so wonderful to see so many new faces last Wednesday. Welcome, everyone!

I've been praying for each of us, particularly Roberta and her husband, Larry, and studying in preparation for class. I came across a few articles that present some ideas I have found helpful in Scripture study better than I can (links below). ;^)

Dr. Scott Hahn quotes our Holy Father in A New Scriptural Springtime .

Dr. Edward P. Sri discusses Mary at Cana and in the Gospel of John in Knowing Mary Through the Bible: New Wine, New Eve .

Catholic Apologist Steve Ray offers some information on John's Gospel in St. John's Gospel: the Theological and Spiritual Gospel .

Also, the St. Martha Adult Faith Formation website: http://stmarthaaff.com/

I am looking forward to our discussions tonight and pray that each of you will have a blessed day and travel to Bible Study safely this evening. Posted below is our Gospel of John Calendar.

In Christ's peace and joy,

Robin

Here's a copy of the e-mail I sent to everyone on the list!

Welcome, Everyone! I just wanted to share the St. Martha Adult Faith Formation website and my blog address with all of you. Jeff Crandall's introductory talk on the Gospel of John, and his powerpoint are available for listening on the internet, or download at:

http://stmarthaaff.com (Scripture=>The Gospels: Bottom of the 2nd audio player/table)

My Weblog: http://duc-in-altum.blogspot.com/ Everyone should be able to easily post, so we can discuss as we read, or discuss Catholic/Bible issues we can't in class where we have to stay on topic.

I would like to thank everyone who came last night, (especially Edith whose faithfulness keeps this program humming along) as well as all who participated. Mulling over the passages we read and discussing how they can or should impact our daily lives is what Little Rock is all about!

With a prayer for those who couldn't make it last night, their families, Roberta and her husband who is so very ill, Larry, and for all of us, may God bless us all and lead us ever closer to Him.

In Christ's peace and joy,

Robin
