ST. FRANCIS’S CREATIVE RECEPTION OF SCRIPTURE AND THE BIBLICAL ROOTS OF FRANCISCAN SPIRITUALITY
Franciscan School of Theology Zoom Lecture Series
Thursday, June 27 at 7:00 p.m. VIA ZOOM
Speaker: Father Garrett Galvin, OFM
One of St. Francis’s earliest biographers, Thomas of Celano, tells us that Francis “lived in the Scriptures.” Francis’s innovations have been described as bringing Christ out of the cloister in the Middle Ages. We will discover how much St. Francis was motivated by a biblical version through looking at five elements of Franciscan spirituality and discovering their scriptural basis within the writings of St. Francis.
Father Garrett Galvin, OFM, PhD. holds a doctorate in biblical studies from the Catholic University of America. He is President at the Franciscan School of Theology where he has taught a variety of courses on Sacred Scripture. He has written two books and a number of articles.
