For the next two Wednesdays, the Bible Study Group will examine two areas of theological teaching: salvation and predestination. Questions concerning these two areas have arisen many times in the course of our study of the Books of the Bible. We are taking two classes and looking at these teachings from historical and denominational perspectives. We will return to the Books of the Bible in a few weeks. Please join the study on Wednesdays at 7 PM in the Parlor.

The Adult Bible Study Class is going on break beginning Wednesday, June 30th until Wednesday, July 28th, which will be a movie night featuring the movie “Doubt”.
Based on the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play, “Doubt” is a suspense-filled drama with riveting performances from Meryl Streep, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams and Viola Davis. Sister Aloysius Beauvier (Streep), the rigid principal of the Saint Nicholas Church School, suffers an extreme dislike for the progressive parish priest Father Flynn (Hoffman). When Sister Aloysius hears that Father Flynn has taken a special interest in a troubled boy, she believes she’s uncovered the ultimate sin; but without proof, the only thing certain is doubt. Nominated for 5 Academy Awards and 6 Critics’ Choice Awards, there is no “doubt” that is is one of the best pictures of the year.
Everyone is welcome to come to the movie night. Bring your own snacks and beverages.

The Adult Bible Study will meet at its regular day and time on Wednesdays from 7 to 8 PM. The study of The Gospel According to Saint Matthew will be lead by Clarence Bunting. Our Bible Studies at St. Timothy’s cover the entire text, and we attempt to see what the authors, like Saint Matthew, are trying to teach us about God Almighty and His Son Jesus Christ and where and how the Holy Ghost is leading us and forming us as a result. Please join us on Wednesdays at 7 PM.

We have concluded the study of The Letter of James, and we thank Mary D’Rozario for her willingness to lead that portion of our study of the Bible. We will now make a change and study the book Making Choices, Practical Wisdom for Everyday Moral Decisions by Peter Kreeft beginning on Wednesday, August 19th from 7 to 8 PM. The author, a philosophy professor at Boston College, gives a good background on ethics and morality in a style that is easy to understand and helps use make decisions based on the Truth (with the big “T” of Christianity). The book is divided into five sections, and we will spend one week on each section. Please come and let’s form some ways to find black and white answers in the gray areas of some of our biggest moral issues such as sex, abortion and truth-telling. We need to find ways for all of us to “love the sinner and hate the sin”. We have ten copies of the book available. If you want to read the first section before Wednesday evening, please see Father James for a copy.
