Biblical Themes Series
Developed out of the Catholic Biblical School, these classes are open to all adults
and focus on various themes throughout the Bible. A more comprehensive and in-depth
study of than what may be offered in the Adult Faith Formation program, this program
is thirty weeks long, requiring students to meet once a week for two hours. Classes
include presentations on background and context, large group discussion, and reference
to both historical or biblical commentary and primary sources.
While they may be of particular interest to graduates of the Catholic Biblical School
and others with a background in Scripture, history, or ministry, these classes require
no prerequisites and are open to everyone.
