Adult Bible Study

Good Shepherd Adult Bible Study will meet Sept. 6, ‘25 – June 6, ‘26. Our season unfolds teaching and learning from one book of Scripture or from various Scriptural passages on a focused topic from either the Old or New Testaments.
 
Learners read Passages and commentary to experience the oral tradition of
Lectio Divina.* Everyone then shares how a particular Scripture verse, word or passage has ‘spoken’ to their heart or touched their spirit and soul. In conversational exchange, we teach and learn from each other in diverse and varied ways. We discuss how this applies to our daily lives as the People of God. Questions are posed to stir thoughts, curiosity, and imagination about how to learn from Scripture and apply these insights to our daily lives.
 
*
Lectio Divina is Latin for "divine reading". It is a meditative technique of prayer and reflection while reading the Bible or other spiritual books. It involves engaging with the text and submitting to the ‘Voice’ in front, within, and behind the text to find transformational meaning, and inspiration. The practice helps one let go of limiting agendas and interiorly open oneself to God’s and Christ’s guidance and solace.
