The Paoline Multimedia International Book Center, Rome, is continuing its program of Biblical Formation Encounters, which emphasize the centrality of the Word of God, so as to make it better known and loved.
In fact, among the cultural activities organized by the book center (conferences, the presentation of significant books, meetings with authors), a primary place has been given to these biblical sessions, which cast light on the different books of the Bible and their themes.
For the past four years these formation meetings have focused on St. Paul and his writings. After a study of his Letters to the Ephesians, to the Galatians and to the Philippians (5 sessions each), the participants are now immersed in his First Letter to the Corinthians. The guide of these formation encounters is Fr. Romano Penna, a biblical scholar who has written extensively about St. Paul and who has many enthusiastic followers among the laity, all eager to get to know more about the Apostle of the Gentiles.
The service of evangelization that our International Book Center carries out every day through the breadth of its diffusion is reinforced by these Biblical Formation sessions.
