Current Studies


I.  A Biblical Walk through the Mass by Edward Sri, S.T.D.

  • A Biblical Walk through the Mass  is a five-part study that provides a unique tour of the timeless Liturgy. It explores the biblical roots of the words and gestures we experience in Mass and explains their profound significance. Participants in this study will come to know and understand the Mass like never before. They will see, perhaps for the first time, why they say what they say and do what they do every week at Mass. The words and gestures will be seen in a new light-leading them to a richer, more fruitful worship experience.

II.  A Quick Journey Through the Bible

  • Presented by Jeff Cavins, the Quick Journey study briefly covers salvation history in a   series of eight, half-hour talks that are complemented by group discussion questions, useful maps and charts, and brief assignments for home study. This study makes the complexity of the Bible simple through an easy-to-follow narrative approach and an ingenious color-coded Bible timeline. This is a great way to “get your feet wet” and learn how to begin authentic Catholic Bible study.
