Witness at the Cross, A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Friday
This study, led by Angela Vandett, will meet Wednesday evenings at 6:30PM, March 5-April 23 (excluding March 19) in the Konionia Room in our FLC.
Experience Holy Friday from the perspective of those who watched
Jesus die: Mary his mother; the Beloved Disciple from the Gospel of John; Mary
Magdalene and the other women from Galilee; the two men, usually identified as
thieves, crucified with Jesus; the centurion and the soldiers; Joseph of
Arimathea and Nicodemus. Jews and Romans, friends and strangers, the powerful
and the powerless, the hopeful and the despairing.
The story of Jesus’s death is not something we just read: we think about it,
and we experience it; we hear the taunts of the soldiers, the priests, and the
passersby even as we hear the famous “seven last words” from the cross.
In Witness at the Cross, Amy-Jill Levine shows how the people at the cross each
have distinct roles to play. Each Evangelist presents a distinct picture of the
death of Jesus. Each portrays different individuals and groups of people at the
cross, each offers different images and dialogues, and so from each, we learn
how those meanings and messages cross the centuries to any who would come to
the cross today.

men's bible study
Begun in 2019, our Men’s Bible Study group meets Thursday mornings at 9:00AM in our Conference Room. Strictly a study of the Books of the Bible, some choose to use commentaries to gain further insight into the material and provide clarity. As we reach the close of the book we are studying, we select another. The foremast is a discussion, instead of lecturing. All are welcome, even if not members of St. Luke’s, as we respect each other as well as thoughts and ideas. Beginning April 17, we will study Paul's Letters starting with Galatians.
