Chinese Bible Study
We warmly invite you to attend a weekly Bible Study for Chinese faculty and staff at Penn. Though we seek to reach Penn's Chinese community, all persons are enthusiastically welcome. The study is conducted in English.
Fall 2009 we will be studying the book of John, a book in the New Testament.
Whether you are a spiritual seeker, or simply interested in understanding American culture better through its most prevalent religion, or are a Christian wanting to deepen your faith, this is a great opportunity to ask questions and to wrestle with the teachings of Christianity. All questions are welcomed! This will also serve as a wonderful place to connect with other members of the Penn community.
(Weekly attendance is encouraged but not required; we recognize that with everyone’s busy schedules that may not always be possible!)
TIME: Noon - 1 PM (Bring your lunch)

Archives - Spring 2009
The group began meeting in January 2009 with a study of the book of Philippians, a 4-chapter book of the New Testament. We watched a captivating video (by Nicky Gumbel), followed by group discussion of the text and Nicky's presentation.
