The Book of Daniel
A Catholic Scripture Study class from Ignatius Press and Tan Books
Catholic Scripture Study (CSS) is an in-depth yet easy-to-understand study that is written in light of Catholic Tradition. It offers solid scripture teaching that is easy for beginners to understand, yet informative and challenging enough for the more advanced Bible student. This is the seventeenth year that CSS is offered at our parish. However, no previous Bible Study experience is necessary in order to enjoy these classes!
Classes will take place on Monday evenings and on Thursday mornings. Choose the day most convenient for you! The first class for The Book of Daniel will take place on Monday, February 6 at 7 PM, and Thursday, February 9 at 9:45 AM in the Education Center.
Lectures: We will view a lecture video at the beginning of each class, but we will also have links to the videos so they can be watched at home, too, if interested.
Classes: We meet in the Education Center to begin with prayer, watch the lecture together, and then break into small groups for discussion in other classrooms. The homework for all classes each week includes reading a chapter or two from the Book of Daniel in the study guide from Ignatius Press, the footnotes provided by Dr. Scott Hahn and Curtis Martin, and answering a few questions. (The answers are usually found in the footnotes.) Besides the study guide from Ignatius Press, we will also use a book from Tan Books that has the notes for the lectures by Dr. Paul Niskanen.
Registration: The cost of the two study guides for the study of The Book of Daniel is $24. Fill out the registration form online at the bottom of this page. Then pay through Faith Direct by clicking here, and scroll down to "Scripture Study" and click on it before you pay. You may also print the form (where it says "Registration Form - The Book of Daniel" at the link above) and mail it with a check payable to: Most Blessed Sacrament Church.
