Greetings!
The following two programs are sponsored by the Diocese of Joliet for those who wish to develop their interest in the Scriptures. We hope that you will join us for these exciting new programs!
|
| Come to the Table of the Word
Catholic Bible Study Resources |
 |
|
Many Catholics would love to make Scripture part of their
lives-but they don't know where to begin! Some Catholics
join Bible studies in other churches-and wonder about
the Catholic approach to Scripture.
Come learn about the wonderful Bible study resources available
to Catholics, and how to use them, including:
· Choosing a Bible.
· Introductory books about the Bible to help you get started.
· Resources for reading the Sunday readings.
· Resources for praying with the Bible.
· Good Bible commentaries for Catholics.
· A four-step approach to deepen your understanding
and experience of Scripture.
