Bible Studies
The Great Adventure
The Office of Adult Faith Formation welcomes you to “The Great Bible Timeline Adventure”. This is a DVD series of Bible studies hosted by EWTN’s renowned Jeff Cavins. Bible studies are tried and true ways to increase in knowledge of the Word of God, to better understand our Catholic faith, and to improve our relationship with the Holy Trinity and one another. In a word, to grow to love God and neighbor more.
For those who have never participated in a Bible study before, the studies have been sub-titled by the amount of reading and study questions one must prepare for each session. Yes, there is homework! Bible 101 is for beginners who are being called to begin the journey. Bible 202 is for folks who have some background in Bible study, say, like Bible 101. There will be more reading and more study questions to attend to. The study may be anywhere from 8-24 weeks long. Bible 303 is for those who wish to read and study deeply the scriptures being addressed.
One of the great benefits of Bible study is Christian fellowship encouraged by the small group faith sharing. Meeting new people will enrich your journey to the kingdom. Another wonderful way to take the study is with a spouse or a good friend. If you are new to our parishes, Bible study is a great way to make new friends and build life-long relationships. Come, join us on the the ADVENTURE!
Bible 101 Ascension Press’ A Quick Journey through the Bible with Jeff Cavins set to Begin on April 18 or 19 and will run until June 6th or 7th
The office of Adult Formation will be offering this Bible study on two different days and two different times. “A Quick Journey through the Bible” is a wonderful way to learn how to get more out of your Bible reading. If you have been hesitant to try to read the Bible on your own, please join us for this enlightening series. There will be 8 weekly sessions. Each session begins with a 30 minute video in which Jeff Cavins of EWTN fame introduces the lesson. The video is then followed by sharing of the homework (reading and answering a few questions in a work book) from the week before.
Study times will be on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 p.m-8:00 p.m or on Thursday mornings from 10:00 a.m.-11:30 a.m.
The cost of the study is $19.95 for materials.
You should also have a personal Bible, but may want to wait until the first session before you purchase one. For more information, please contact Rita at 332-1863 or rpender@hrsl.org if you would like more information. Materials should be ordered by March 21 from either Rita or the Holy Rosary Bookstore.

Bible 202 Ascension Press’ The Bible Timeline with Jeff Cavins Still Welcomes You
The Bible Timeline with Jeff Cavins is an amazing DVD Bible Study which features Bible scholar Jeff Cavins. Participants study the genealogy of Jesus following an ingenius chart which pulls together all of Salvation History. This study features readings in many different books of the Bible, so seasoned Bible students may do best. If you are new to Bible study, you may want to experience “A Quick Journey through the Bible” first. Due to the generosity and enthusiasm of four of our parishioners, we are able to offer two sessions: one beginning at 10 a.m. on Tuesday mornings and one beginning at 7 p.m. on Tuesday evenings. Both classes will be offered in the St. Joan of Arc Room downstairs in the Community Building at OLHR. Even though this course has already begun, there is always time to jump on board. For more information, contact us.
