Since the 1990s, I have led an Adult Education, or Formation, class most Sundays at Christ Episcopal Church in Little Rock, Arkansas. Years ago, I began using PowerPoint presentations for lectionary and Bible study materials because it was hard to know how many paper copies we would need. PowerPoint also made it easy to include art, stained glass images, maps, and other visual aids—the kind of resources once found on Sunday school flip charts.

Some churches already have everything required for this kind of setup. For those that do not, the “How to” section offers practical instructions to help any congregation create an engaging adult formation space on a budget.

Stained Glass Christ Episcopal Church for Adult Sunday School, Formation, Bible, Scripture, Free resource

$200.00 Budget

The class materials here are free - I enjoyed making them and presenting them. I want you to enjoy them as well. You can do every course here for one initial investment of less than $200.00.  If you are lucky enough to have a class space already equipped for PowerPoint,  then you would have no cost.

Explore the samples and instruction videos to see what is possible—and to be reminded that you can answer your call to formation. Technology can feel intimidating at first, but it can also open the door to richer study, deeper conversation, and a wider range of resources. My hope is to help adults in the Episcopal Church become more familiar with the Bible: what it actually says, rather than only what others insist it must say.

With a little study, you may discover that the Gospel is truly good news—not merely somewhat good news. The Lord loves you, will never abandon you, and is there when you look.

Proper 13 RCL A

Text only search terms

Both done. The edited deck is saved, and I've built the keyword file.


**Word file:** `Proper13_keywords.docx` — one continuous paragraph, no line breaks or returns, ready to paste as a single block. It holds 87 search-friendly terms drawn from across the deck: the lectionary/Proper 13 framing, the Jacob and feeding-of-the-5000 themes, all the scripture references, the artists and artworks (Delacroix, Gauguin, Lombard, Tintoretto), and the reference sources.


Here's the exact block so you can copy it straight away:


Proper 13, The Collect Proper 13, Revised Common Lectionary, RCL Year A, RCL Year B, RCL Year C, Book of Common Prayer, BCP, lectionary readings, Bible study, sermon preparation, Jacob wrestling with the angel, Jacob and the angel, Genesis 32:22-31, Jacob renamed Israel, God rules, the one who strives with God, Peniel, Penuel, Jacob's reconciliation with Esau, Jacob and Esau, Mahanaim, Jabbok, Jacob the Supplanter, Eugène Delacroix, Jacob Wrestling with the Angel Delacroix, Saint-Sulpice Paris, Romantic era painting, Paul Gauguin, The Vision After the Sermon, Vision after the Sermon Jacob Wrestling with the Angel, National Galleries of Scotland Edinburgh, Brittany Breton women, Japanese print influence, Psalm 17, Exaudi Domine, plea for deliverance, Psalm 145, Exaltabo te Deus, acrostic psalm, hymn of praise, the greatness and goodness of God, Isaiah 55:1-5, Book of the Consolation of Israel, Second Isaiah, everlasting covenant, invitation to abundant life, hymn of joy and triumph, come to the waters, Romans 9:1-5, Paul and Israel, the problem of Israel's unbelief, adoption of Israel, ancient covenants, the giving of the law, the Messiah, Messiah translated as Christ, anointed one, Davidic messiah, Cyrus the Lord's anointed, Passion and Resurrection, Kingdom of God, Matthew 14:13-21, feeding of the five thousand, five loaves and two fish, twelve baskets, deserted place, you give them something to eat, feeding of the four thousand, miracles in the Bible, biblical miracles, confirmatory miracles, manna in the wilderness, Exodus, the Eucharist, Lambert Lombard, The Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes Lombard, Rockox House Antwerp, Flemish Renaissance art, Tintoretto, The Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes Tintoretto, Scuola Grande di San Rocco Venice, Venetian painting, Saint Roch, New Oxford Annotated Bible, Oxford Companion to the Bible, Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church


Want me to add more long-tail phrases (full questions people might search, like "why was Jacob renamed Israel"), or trim it to a tighter core set?
