Speaking of God
4-week Scripture Series
Tuesdays, February 25 to March 18, 2025*
10:00 to 11:30 a.m.
Msgr. Frank Matera
How can we speak of God in a way that does not betray God’s holiness and transcendence? How do we know God? What is God’s name? These are the questions that this four-part series addresses. Topics that will be discussed are Abraham’s Encounter with the God of Promise, The Revelation of God’s Name to Moses, Elijah’s Experience of the Power and Silence of God, and Isaiah’s Encounter with the Holiness and Glory of God.
* Class dates: February 25, March 4, 11, 18, 2025
