SABBATH REST BIBLE STUDY - Lay Lead Bible Study at 9:30 am
Sundays – 09:30 AM, in the St. Luke’s Parish Hall
Sabbath Rest Bible Study is a layperson-led bible study open to anyone who would like to join. We meet in the Parish Hall on Sundays, before the 10:30 AM service. The goal is to create a relaxed environment where we can learn about the Word, share our thoughts and ideas, then use what we discover in our real-world lives.
Our next study is the Gospel of John. We will follow a study guide written by N. T. Wright, an English New Testament scholar and Anglican bishop (bishop of Durham, 2003 to 2010). Fr. Jonny was tutored by bishop Wright at Oxford University. The study guide, John, is available for purchase on Amazon in print or for Kindle. We will use the questions from this book to guide our study. Here is a link to the study guide: https://a.co/d/gnhpyT2
As a supplement, we will also be looking at a book by Cynthia Briggs Kittredge, Conversations with Scripture: The Gospel of John. The Very Reverend Cynthia Briggs Kittredge is Dean Emerita at Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas where she served as Dean and President and Professor of New Testament. She is an Anglican biblical scholar, preacher, and poet. She serves as a Canon Theologian in the Diocese of Southwark in London. Here is a link to the Kittredge book: https://a.co/d/aUR6bPu
This additional book can be used to enhance our understanding of the Gospel of John from another author’s point of view; however, it is not necessary to have both books for our Bible study—we will be using the N.T. Wright book for our weekly questions and guidance.
