Study

Bible Study

Explore Holy scripture and the tradition of the Church through discussion and presentation. A variety of themes are explored through passages, history, geography and theological interpretations through the ages. Please see the announcements for upcoming courses. 

Theological Book Study

Thursday, March 9th at 4:00 PM

During Lent, we will read The Changing Face of God, a collection of essays by contemporary theologians.  Join us in the library as we discuss the essay by Marcus Borg. Contact Mary Lou Cristafi (561-746-4674) for more information. All are welcome.

Parish Library

The library provides resources for parish members who seek a greater knowledge of religion and our Episcopal faith. It also provides reading for entertainment as well as enlightenment. Located in the Ryon building, it is open when the office is open and no other meetings are scheduled in the space. 

The Rector's Forum

The Rector's Forum is an opportunity for us to come together for meaningful conversation about significant issues and events in our contemporary culture and society. It is a time when we can model what it means to be a Christian community and how we are called to treat each other -- even when we disagree. We meet monthly on the third Sunday (Grow Sunday!) in the Parish Hall, September - May.

Lenten Bible Study Series

Bible Study with Clergy

The Difficult Words of Jesus

Wednesdays during Lent, at 11:00 AM in the Parish Hall. 

The words of Jesus have been a source of comfort, support, and instruction to Christians for centuries. But what do we do with the difficult words of Jesus? The ones that are hard to make sense of? The ones that feel contrary to his message of love? Join us during Lent for a discussion on the difficult words of Jesus, guided by Fr. Derek and with videos from Dr. Amy-Jill Levine, professor of New Testament Studies at Vanderbilt Divinity School.

Biblical Stories of Epiphany

Bible Study with Clergy 2023

Biblical Stories of Epiphany

The Season after the Epiphany is a season all about finding God in ordinary life.

Witness at the Cross

Witness at the Cross

Witness at the Cross: Looking at Good Friday from Every Angle

Five Week Study

This five-week study will focus on the story of the crucifixion of Jesus as told by the four gospel writers. However, what will make this study unique is that each week we will view the events of the crucifixion from the perspective of a different person or group who was present when Jesus died. The study will be based on a recent book by New Testament scholar Amy-Jill Levine, but the book will not be required. Join Fr. Doug for this fresh approach to Holy Week and the biblical stories that shape our understanding of Jesus’ death.
