The Last Week Study at FUMC

Participate in the Season of Lent by sharing in this study.

This 5-week Lenten study will use Marcus Borg & John Dominic Crossan's book The Last Week: What The Gospels Really Teach About Jesus's Final Days in Jerusalem to guide us through a Bible Study focusing on Mark's Gospel account of Jesus' last week. It will also look at the other three Gospels (Matthew, Luke, and John) for further insight.

Read what others have had to say about The Last Week:

"The authors dig into the Gospel of Mark's day-by-day account of the week leading up to Easter, and they excavate profound insights into the political and spiritual dynamics of Jesus's true passion - his message of the kingdom of God."
Brian McLaren, author of A New Kind of Christian

"It is difficult to overestimate the importance of this volume for students of the Bible, especially those who mean to follow the Prince of Peace."
Barbara Brown Taylor, author of Leaving Church and a past Perkins Lecturer

"This is a 'must read' for clergy and laity."
Peter J. Gomes, author of The Good Book

We’ll study two chapters per week beginning February 10.
