Saved Bible Study

What place does the Bible have in your life? Taking part in Bible studies offered at St. Luke’s gives you an authentic understanding of Sacred Scripture, the heart of our Faith and relationship with God, leading us to experience the life-changing power of God’s Word. Study sessions range from long and short term studies of the Old and New Testament to shorter options that study individual books of the Bible with no biblical background necessary.

Study Opportunities

INTRODUCTORY COURSE: Unlocking the Mystery of the Bible

8 sessions (Overview of the Bible)

NOTE: This course can be taken separate from the study courses below as an introduction with more general content and within a shorter amount of time.  The course does not have to be a pre-requisite to the following courses.

The following study courses build upon each other in order. Courses are once a week (approximately 2 hour session) consisting of a video teaching (50 minutes) and small group discussion time (60 minutes).  Participants are assigned passages from the Bible to read and to prepare answers to discussion questions at home prior to each small group gathering.
