About this title

Synopsis

EFM Reading and Reflection Guides provide weekly assignments
for reading, reflection, and response that encourage groups to develop
a lifelong practice of engagement with the Christian tradition in study.
Participants in the first two years read the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament
along with commentary that helps them understand the texts in their
ancient and modern contexts. In the third year, they study the history of the
church. In their final year participants study Christian theology while examining
their own personal theologies, consider ethics through the lens of the
Anglican tradition, and read first-person stories of interreligious encounter.
In addition, the Reading and Reflection Guides offer contextual themes
that shape ministerial formation over four years, viewing the study of the
Christian tradition through lenses of personal and global contexts for our
ministry in daily life as we grow in spiritual maturity and live into the journey with God. The regular study of the Christian tradition in EfM forms
a foundation for theological reflection in the service of faithful living.
