Jesus and the Jubilee: The Biblical Roots of the Year of God’s Favor
Wednesdays, May 28 to July 16 ~ 10 am to noon ~ Waxhaw Campus
Jubilee means joy—a joy that’s not fleeting, a joy that lasts. In biblical times, a jubilee was a time to rejoice. And this is still the case when the Church announces a jubilee. Jesus and the Jubilee, gets to the roots of the jubilee, showing how the Catholic Church is the perpetual jubilee, offering redemption, release from spiritual bondage, return to our true home and family, and rest in God’s fullness. Discover how the jubilee is the very center of Jesus’s mission and how we can fully participate in this ongoing “year of favor.”
