Lenten Bible Study Sundays at 11am February 21st- March 28th

Dive deep into the history of the last days before the crucifixion.

Jesus’  final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with  anticipation, danger, and the potential for great loss or great reward.  Jesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory  parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His  followers risked everything when they left behind their homes, or  anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read  these stories, finding new meanings and new challenges.

In Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week,  author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine explores the  biblical texts surrounding the Passion story. She shows us how the text  raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader, and how we all  face risk in our Christian experience.
