The Fifth Sunday After Pentecost

The Fifth Sunday After Pentecost

O God, who hast taught us to keep all thy commandments by loving thee and our neighbor: Grant us the grace of thy Holy Spirit, that we may be devoted to thee with our whole heart, and united to one another with pure affection; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. (Proper 9)

At right: King David in the Incarnation Window of Saint Thomas Church.

Beginning June 10 and extending on Sunday mornings throughout the summer, Fr Austin guides us through the First and Second Books of Samuel. Fr Austin recommends Robert Alter’s The David Story, which is a translation with commentary by that notable literary scholar. He also recommends a commentary by Francesca Aran Murphy on First Samuel in the Brazos series of theological commentaries. However, you don’t need to read either book to enjoy the class. Bibles are provided. Simply show up for any or all class sessions.
