How can you know God without knowing His Word?

Each week at Mass, we are given two readings — the first from the Old Testament (except during the Easter Season when the Book of Acts is used for the first reading), and a second reading is from a New Testament Epistle (letter). Then, we have a Gospel reading.

Christ the King  Bible studies take the three readings, along with commentaries, and discuss what they mean, how they are related to each other, and how they affect us today. There is never a "stupid" question. All questions are honored as important — we are at all different levels of Bible knowledge. All are welcome.

Bible Study Times

• The Saturday morning (8:00-9:00 am) Men's Bible study meets in the lower level of the Parish Office.

• The Saturday morning (8:00-9:00 am) Women's Bible study meets in the school library.

Online Bible Studies

Each week, you can access and print the Bible study (in pdf format below) before your Bible study, which will help your understanding and to know what questions you may have for discussion. If you are unable to attend an available study, you can use the online information for a personal Bible study, though you will gain more understanding as part of a study group.

Studies use Catholic approved commentaries and sources to explain what the readings mean. The commentaries used are from one or more of the following:

• Reference notes found in both The Jerusalem (research) Bible and the Revised New American Bible

• St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Picayune, MS, web site's Bible study commentary, found at http://www.scborromeo.org/bible.htm

• The Navarre Bible Commentary

• The Haydock Bible Commentary

The Scripture is taken from the Revised New American Bible.

Don't have a Bible for home study? Here are two online Catholic Bibles (also, each online study contains the readings):

• http://www.usccb.org/nab/bible

• http://www.newadvent.org/bible

Additional historical information. We add such information when appropriate and time permits to help put the Scripture readings into perspective.
