Our Theologian in Residence, the Rev. Dr. Luigi Gioia, continues a year-long course to dive into all the main areas of theology: Faith, Scripture, Tradition, God, Christ, Salvation, the Holy Spirit, the Trinity, and the Church – always with an eye to their relevance for spirituality and for everyday life.
One of the most striking features of the way Jesus is portrayed in the Gospels, especially by Luke, is that prayer is at the core of his mission. How to reconcile this description with the confession that Jesus is God which is at the heart of Christian faith? How can God pray to God? Was Jesus just pretending to pray to give us an example? We shall see that Jesus does not pray despite the fact that he is God, but because he is God – and once again this will help us to expand our understanding of what ‘to be God’ really means. Prayer is not just a feature of Jesus’ mission but much more deeply of his identity.
The Adult Education program at Saint Thomas Church offers sound Christian teaching presented with intellectual vigor, teaching that is grounded in Holy Scripture, mediated by the catholic tradition that is the inheritance of Anglicanism and set forth in the Book of Common Prayer. For more information about our theology program and to receive links for weekly Sunday Theology Talks, please contact Fr. Gioia.
