ConSagraE – Brazil

In times of dispersion, individualism, and uncertainty, many Christians wonder how to live faithfully to the Gospel and keep hope alive. The Catholic Epistles, or Catholic Letters, answer this question.

This course proposes a prayerful and pastoral reading of the letters of James, Peter, John, and Jude. Written for all Christians, these epistles address themes such as: trials, unity, truth, love for one’s brother, perseverance, and combatting error. They illuminate the journey of the Church and discipleship today.

How often does prayer seem mechanical, repetitive, or distant from real life? Many Christians find it difficult to pray from the heart, authentically and deeply. The good news is that the Bible is also a school of prayer.

In this course, participants will learn to pray with the Word, especially the Psalms, which express all the feelings of the human soul before God. Praying with the Bible allows prayer to come not only from within, but also from the voice of God in dialogue with the human heart.

Sr Ivete has a Masters in Biblical Theology and many years of teaching experience.

Many people long to understand their faith more deeply, but they stumble upon biblical texts that seem far from reality. The letter to the Romans is one such text:  dense, full of theological terms, but fundamental to understanding salvation, grace, and the Christian mission.

This course helps to break down these barriers, by delving with clarity, spirituality, and method into the greatest and most profound letter written by Saint Paul. The aim is to transform reading into a path of personal conversion and concrete action.
