Meeting ID: 966 114 8511
Passcode: 5zJ3YM
When: Monthly – third Tuesday 1.30 – 3.00 pm. A detailed timetable will be forwarded to those who show interest in joining us.
Purpose: To further our own spiritual growth by improving our understanding of Luke’s gospel.
Our approach : This is a study group of equals in that it is not led by an “expert”. All participants will be expected to read the relevant section before each meeting and may undertake their own research and be prepared to share that research with others. The Carmelite Library in Middle Park has a number of resources and commentaries to help.
As the intention is to further individual’s spiritual development, the text will not be critiqued as in an academic exercise. However, reading commentaries from learned scholars would be helpful.
Clare McArdle moderates the sessions (but others are encouraged to take turns if they wish). The role of the moderator is to keep us to the time limits and to keep the discussion moving along, but not as ‘experts’ with all the answers. Fr David Hofman OCarm will attend as, and when, he can. There will be others in the group who may have an understanding of Mark which they can share.
