Now where did I put that Bible...?


This year we'll be reading through the Gospel of Luke in the Sunday readings. Grab your Bible and take a peek at Luke. A few pointers:
  • The author is presumed to be Luke the Physician, a companion of Paul and also the writer of the Acts of the Apostles.
  • Luke contains the beautiful Christmas story of Mary, Joseph, the shepherds and the angels.
  • Luke portrays women sympathetically.
  • The Holy Spirit is a strong presence in the Gospel of Luke.
  • Luke often shows Jesus at prayer, especially before important events.

    Thanks Bill. Have my Bible open to Luke and beginning to read. This is just what I needed to see me through Advent and beyond... Blessings.

    Thanks, Barb. Luke is such a beautiful Gospel, especially the story of the nativity.
