Weekly Scripture Study Guides

The Ark's weekly Scripture study aids are available for viewing in PDF format using Adobe's free Acrobat Reader.

Our Scripture aids are designed specifically for those who follow the weekly readings from the Lectionary. Although they are designed for those who must preach from the Word or those who lead Scriptural discussion groups, many others will find these aids valuable adjuncts to their personal reading of the Scripture as well.

Each Lectionary aid focuses on the Gospel from one of the Sundays of the year, and is divided into sections on entering the scene, the Gospel text, study of the Word, questions for discussion, parallel texts, other Scriptural texts for the week, a prayer for a closing, and supportive information from a variety of sources. The weekly discussion question is suitable for inclusion in worship bulletins. Fr. Beck's drawings make good bulletin cover inclusions. Fr. Beck has also given us access to the weekly diocesan column on the texts of the week. Every week part of the guide is posted and can be used for the prayer portion of your various committee meetings.

We now have study guides available for all the weeks of Cycles A, B, and C. If you are not using the lectionary, and want to have certain guides for weeks you are preaching/teaching, please indicate which texts you are interested in.  You can choose individual guides on the following pages:

• Matthew
• Mark
• Luke
• John

If you are considering using the study guides, and want a free introductory sample, please email me and it will be sent as soon as possible.
