Priest, Prophet, King Leader's Guide

The Leader Guide includes the Facilitator's guide, all six lessons from the participant's Study Guide, and an Answer Key for the Questions for Understanding. The Facilitator's Guide details how to plan, promote, and present the study.  

Who was Jesus, this itinerant preacher whom many called the Messiah? In Priest, Prophet, King, you’ll discover Jesus as the Anointed One; the ultimate priest, prophet, and king foreshadowed throughout the Hebrew Scriptures. Using biblical insights and engaging stories, Bishop Barron affirms that we see Jesus most clearly through the lens of the Old Testament.

Paired with the film presentation of Priest, Prophet, King, you can use this study guide to better understand Jesus, become more familiar with Scripture, and realize your own priestly, prophetic, and kingly mission.

For group study, you can present the program in six or seven sessions of 60-90 minutes.  Each session should include video viewing and group discussion of Study Guide questions.  All study coordinators or group facilitators can also register for free training webinars.

Each lesson in the Guide provides detailed commentary on Bishop Barron’s video and “Questions for Understanding" based on the video, Scripture, and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The “Questions for Application" in each lesson aid in connecting the material to our own lives and experiences.

Participants read the commentary in their Study Guide and prepare the questions before the small group discussion. This preparation can be accomplished either before or after viewing the video.
