During the class session, there will be some time for discussion, questions/answers, and personal work/reflection. Each session will end with a brief Lectio Divina examining a small section of scripture of the lesson to listen for what God has to share with you. The goals are to be able to find a passage, then have an idea of what the major books are about, and an introduction to some tools to help you learn more.
