Bible Studies

Picture
FALL 2025
Book of Revelation 
THURSDAYS, 7-8 pm (October 16 - November 13)
Office (if joining in person) - please use 48th Street entrance*

"Revelation is a call to have faith in God rather than empire."

Have you always been curious about the Book of Revelation and its dense and mysterious imagery? Or maybe turned off? Or just confused? If so, join us in person or online (via Zoom) for a short-term hybrid study​ of this classic example of apocalyptic literature - and the only apocalyptic book in Greek scriptures.

We'll be using the book, Unveiling Empire: Reading Revelation Then and Now, as a guide to help us make sense of this "troubling and controversial book." PLEASE NOTE that you do not need the book to participate!  

Contact Pastor Tim to sign up, or with any questions. 

RECENT STUDIES
  • Matthew & Luke
  • Ruth
  • Resipiscence: A Lenten Devotional for Dismantling White Supremacy (based on Revised Common Lectionary scripture texts)

Additional Resources
  • Follow the Center and Library for the Bible and Social Justice on Facebook for weekly reflections on the connections between the Revised Common Lectionary and movements for justice, drawn from CLBSJ writers and partners.
