An on-demand video of this class is available above and on our YouTube channel.
The Rev. Dr. Luigi Gioia, Associate for Adult Education and Formation, lead this session on Handel’s masterwork, which features the whole of Jesus’ life: Nativity, Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension. Why then should the piece be especially performed during the season of Advent? Is it just because it starts with Jesus’s birth? We will see that there are theological and spiritual reasons that explain why this oratorio resonates especially with the liturgical season of Advent.
Contact Fr. Gioia for more information about Theology at Saint Thomas.
The Adult Education program at Saint Thomas Church offers sound Christian teaching presented with intellectual vigor, teaching that is grounded in Holy Scripture, mediated by the catholic tradition that is the inheritance of Anglicanism and set forth in the Book of Common Prayer.
