And the same for JOHN on Thursday, May 22nd starting at 6:15pm. This is perhaps the other of the two greatest books of the Bible. Of the four Gospels it is sometimes called the ‘spiritual gospel,’ perhaps because of the poetic yet strangely earthy way it tells the story of Jesus.

ROMANS is perhaps one of the two greatest books in the Bible. On Tuesday, May 20th at 12:30pm we will begin to read the book out loud. We will meet for an hour. The experience of hearing a whole book read aloud is revelatory. These texts were originally written to be heard- remember that very few people could read back then!

If you wish, you can continue to come through the summer as we slowly study the book in depth.
