The weekday Bible class meets twice a month on Thursdays at 12 noon and lasts until 1 p.m.
We meet in the church basement, usually on the first and third Thursday of the month at 12 noon, but the schedule does vary due to various events conflicting with the usual days.
In December 2011 we began a Bible study called “Christmas through Middle Eastern Eyes,” which is based on Kenneth Bailey’s new book, Jesus through Middle Eastern Eyes, which explores cultural nuances often overlooked in translation. In the first few months of 2012 we will continue looking at highlights of that book, especially what it has to say about the parables of Jesus.
To give you an idea of where we’ve been recently in our Bible class, we spent the spring and fall of 2011 looking at highlights of Genesis. Before that we had spent several months going through Leviticus, especially the Holiness Code (chapters 17-27).
The Bible class will meet on the following days in the first half of 2012:
January 5 and 26 (a week later than usual); February 2 and 16; March 1 and 15 and 29 (note the unusual addition); April 12 (one week late because of Easter, which will make the next 3 classes occur one week off) and 26; May 10 and 24; June 7 and 21.
