“How to Read the Bible: A Catholic Approach”
If we believe our Sacred Scripture is important for connecting with God, then how we read the Bible is imperative for the development of faith and implementing Catholic values in our daily lives. A lecture series, “How to Read the Bible: A Catholic Approach” can help you to grow in that understanding. Through various sources of Biblical scholarship, participants will learn about the origins of the Catholic Bible, the challenges of interpretive versus literal interpretations of Scripture, key themes of Catholicism, and applying the lessons to our own lives.
Fr. Bill O’Shea will be making the presentations on the following Thursdays: October 22, and November 5, 12, and 19, 2009. All sessions will be held beginning at 6:30 p.m. in Room 25-A of Old St. Pat’s Church, 711 W. Monroe Street in Chicago. Admission is free, and everyone is invited to attend. If you would like more information, please telephone Tammy of Old St. Pat’s at (312) 798-2350.
