Our Lenten Bible Study this year will be on the Book of James. It is often described as one of the “Catholic Epistles” because of its emphasis on our response to God’s grace. Since Pope Benedict has made “justice” his focus of reflection during Lent, it seems appropriate to look at this book which deals with the Christian response to God’s gift of grace with faith and deeds.
March 8: An Introduction to the Book of James
March 15: Chapters 1 and 2, Deeds of Faith
March 22: Chapters 3 and 4, Call to Conversion
March 29: Chapter 5, Patience and Warnings.
The morning session will take place at 9:15 a.m. The evening session will begin at 7:00 p.m. Both sessions will take place in the Steinhausen Center and will last an hour and a half.
