THE REVEREND MAREK ZABRISKIE’S BIBLE STUDY
WHY BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE: A STUDY OF THE BOOK OF JOB
TUESDAYS FEB 1, 8, 15, 22, 7:30-9 P.M IN THE RECTORY
This Bible study is open to men and women in our parish and will meet at the Rectory located at 10 Park Place across from the church on Tuesday evenings. We will explore issues of suffering, theodicy (why does God permit evil to occur?), resiliency, supporting those we know who have been touched by grief and acquainted with sorrow, receiving care from friends and family, rebuilding our lives, our hope and our trust in God. Suffering and loss are the number one reason people leave church and give up on God. Job is one of the most important pieces of world literature and a masterpiece from the Hebrew Scriptures.
This class will be co-led by the Rev. Marek Zabriskie and Parishioner Nelson Fitts. Class limit 18.

The Bible Challenge Studies
The Bible Challenge Studies show that the number one way to grow spiritually is to read a portion of the Bible in a prayerful manner each day. This spiritual discipline is unbeatable. Our Rector created a Bible reading plan in 2011 to help Episcopalians read through either the entire Bible or the New Testament, Proverbs and Psalms in a year. Since then, over one million Episcopalians and Anglicans around the world have participated. If you are interested in reading a portion of the Bible each day, visit www.thecenterforblicalstudies.org to find the reading plans and tips on how to participate as an individual. Contact Marek at mzabriskie@christchurchgreenwich.org to let him know that you are participating. You can start on any day of the year and invite family and friends to join you.
