With the start of the new academic year, New Testament Bible Study will resume on Sunday September 15th at 10:45 am following worship and on Tuesdays from noon to 1pm beginning Tuesday September 17th. Classes will gather in the Guild room.

We will once again be exploring the historical content, original sources, and the materials used in the writings that formed the New Testament Canon. Through a chronological reading, we will experience the timeline within the New Testament. This will be an opportunity to encounter the contents of each book, discuss the historical background, author, context, audience, and purpose (who, where, when, why). We will discover themes and messages within each of the Gospels, Pauline Epistles, Acts, and Revelation.

It is not required, but I do suggest having a good Study Bible. If you have one already, wonderful. If you are interested in getting a new one, I recommend either The New Oxford Annotated Bible with Apocrypha 5th Edition NRSV or the Lutheran Study Bible in the NRSV translation.
