The Brief Bible: “20 Minutes with Matthew”
Sunday mornings at 9:30 beginning March 5th Rev. Jill and Rev. Terry will lead a series on the Gospel of Matthew. Each week will focus on a specific story in Matthew’s Gospel. Meeting in the Battin Room.
Designed so that parishioners can read their way through the gospel at their own pace, with a specific story in Matthew’s Gospel selected for each week’s discussion. Participants are encouraged to purchase a study guide such as Matthew: Interpretation Bible Commentary Matthew: Interpretation Bible Commentary by Douglas R. A. Hare (available on Amazon and Kindle).
