Lenten Bible Study
For the 2017 Lenten season, plans are to focus on Christianity’s most famous prayer, Lord’s Prayer.
We will be using John Dominic Crossan, The Greatest Prayer:
Rediscovering the Revolutionary Message of the Lord’s Prayer. New York: HarperCollins, 2011.
It is a prayer that we say together every Sunday in our worship together. Moreover, it is a prayer that most of us know by heart and one we carry with us wherever we go.
Nevertheless, familiarity can have its negatives, the main one assuming we know the spiritual depths our Lord is affirming in this model for prayer.
Cost for the book is $11.00. See Bill Kneebone for a copy. The six sessions in the Ladies Parlor will run from
Wednesday, March 1 to Wednesday, April 5 at 2:00 P.M.
