DURING Lent, Jesuit priest Brendan Byrne SJ will deliver a series of four talks based on the “Four Portraits of Jesus: Mark, Matthew, Luke and John.” These talks will be held on Tuesday 7
These talks will be held on Tuesday 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th March at 7.30pm in the Immaculate Conception Church, 345 Burwood Road, Hawthorn.
Beginning with Mark, each talk will bring out the evangelist’s particular “take” on Jesus: his identity – human and divine – and his role in bringing the world to fullness of salvation.
The talk will consider the setting of each gospel in the life of the early church, the aims of the evangelist, and some passages from the gospel that particularly illustrate his view of Jesus.
