Welcome to our 2023 Lent Program Page
​
Over six sessions, using N.T. Wright and Michael F. Bird's "The New Testament You Never Knew" study materials, this year's offering will look back at the times and their influence on not only the message Jesus shared, but how they shaped the formation of what we now know of as The New Testament.
​
Each week, we will look at The New Testament from differing points of view to deepen our awareness of the story it tells and to learn more about those who wrote the books and letters we read, as well as the events that inspired them to offer witness to message of hope Jesus brought to the world.
​
If you would like to see what we will be discussing, or you would like to follow along with the weekly reflections, please print the worksheets below.
Better yet, please join us in the parish hall at 5:00 pm on the Sundays listed below for a shared soup supper followed by a short video and group discussions.
