BIBLE STUDIES

LIFE TEEN holds Bible Studies for all high school teens every Wednesday from 6:30-8:00pm at Holy Family High School's Auditorium. This is another great opportunity for teens to grow in community and in knowledge and love of Scripture.

Matthew: The King and His Kingdom by Jeff Cavins

Building directly on the foundation laid in The Bible Timeline, Step Two in The Great Adventure Bible Study Series, Matthew: The King and His Kingdom, shows how Jesus builds on the foundation laid in the Old Testament to inaugurate the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. Experience how Jesus relived the life and struggles of Israel to become the faithful and victorious King, and see how the promises of the Old Testament are fulfilled in Christ and his Apostles. This series is an ideal follow-up study to the basic narrative of Scripture taught in The Bible Timeline Course.

Matthew: The King and His Kingdom has been granted the Imprimatur by Justin Cardinal Rigali, Archbishop of Philadelphia.

You Will:

• See Jesus as the Son of David, the Son of Abraham, the new Moses, the true manna, the new Temple—and learn what this means for us today.

• Learn how Jesus reconstituted the struggling kingdom of Israel around Himself and brought it to a new level in the Kingdom of God, open to all people.

• Witness the seeds of the Church in the foundation Christ built on the twelve apostles, with Peter as His vicar.

• Discover the roots of the sacraments, and see how Jesus’ words and actions are reflected in the holy sacrifice of the Mass.

• Watch Jesus re-live the life and history of Israel as the obedient Son who trusts the Father to the very end, defeats death, hell, and the grave, and rises to new life.

We follow a guide book that leads us to the Bible.  The book we have this coming semester (Fall 2011) is called:  “TREASURES UNCOVERED The Parables of Jesus”.  We meet at the Life Teen House on Thursdays from 10.00AM to 12.00 PM.  We have fellowship and enjoy our time together learning and getting closer to the Lord.  All ladies are welcome.  For more information call Nini at 323-661-5667.
