Professor Michael Barber, the John Paul the Great Catholic University Professor of Theology, Scripture and Catholic Thought, will be teaching a Bible study on the Gospel of Matthew. The 6-week-long lecture series, which begins May 8 in Covina, CA, and May 9 in San Diego, CA, is free and open to the public.
You will learn the answers to such questions as:
1. Is the Gospel of Matthew historical?
2. What about the discovery of other so-called "Gospels" such as the Gospel of Judas?
3. Is the Christmas story true?
4. What exactly is the Kingdom of God? Where do we find it today?
5. What did Jesus really teach about God? What did He really teach about morality?
6. Did Mary have other children besides Jesus?
7. What did Jesus say about His Second Coming? Is He coming soon?
8. What does the Gospel have to teach us about Baptism & the Eucharist?
9. How do Catholics interpret the Bible?
10. And much, much more…
