TRS 203 Bible in the Life of the Church

This course surveys both Testaments of the Bible through the lens of the Church's liturgical year. One of the most important ways in which the Bible is "actualized," in which we "sincerely seek what the text has to say to the present time," (Pontifical Biblical Commission, Interpretation of the Bible in the Church), is in and through the presentation and exploration of Christianity the Church gives through its annual liturgical calendar and lectionary cycle. This course uses the practices of the Christian year to guide students through the canon of the Bible. The course includes lecture, discussion, and student research. Both spring and fall terms.
