Enjoying Paul's Letters and the Old Testament is the second Scripture Course I taught in Cloyne Diocese when I was engaged in pastoral ministry and adult religious education in Ireland before coming to minister in the USA. It covers all the letters of the New Testament and the first third of the Old Testament. You can read the course outline below and also some excerpts.

First Course: Enjoying the Bible |
A highlight of the Scripture Courses I taught each night was 20 minutes of prayer using the Bible. These guided biblical meditations were so popular that many course participants asked to have some of them recorded. Visit An Hour with Jesus, Our Life, God's Gift and Let's Talk to Jesus where you can listen to samples in audio. |
