EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME WEEKLY BULLETIN EIGHT SESSION FALL SEMESTER BIBLE STUDY Ephesians was one of the most widely circulated of St. Paul’s writings because of its powerful, practical instructions for disciples of Christ. In fact, its six short chapters contain some of the most discussed passages in the New Testament. Ephesians: Discover Your Inheritance examines many important themes that are still relevant in today’s Christian culture and society—the nature of marriage, the purpose and role of today’s Christian culture and society—the nature of marriage, the purpose and role of the Church, the preeminence of grace in God’s plan, and the reality of spiritual warfare. Participants may choose Monday Zoom session at 6:30 p.m. beginning September 20, Tuesday morning sessions from 10 a.m. until noon beginning September 21, Thursday evening sessions from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. beginning September 23, or the Streaming Online Option.
