   These are some of the classes and lectures Mauricio can present in your school or parish. All lectures are
   presented at a college level, but Mauricio makes sure that audiences of all levels get the most out of them.

   If you are interested in inviting Mauricio to talk to your group, not only with a lecture, but also with a meditation
   on a retreat, just contact him. He is always willing to help.

Understanding the Bread of Life

*       The Multiplication of Loaves

*       Jesus Walking over the Sea

Understanding the Gospel of Luke

The Gospel of Luke is studied from an exegetical point of view in 11 classes of 2 hours. The literary style, art, structure and theology of the gospel are explained.

Students learn the exegesis method of the Semiotic Analysis, and develop the interpretation of a pericope of their choice along the class.

This class is presented at a college level, but Mauricio helps even the novice bible student to understand all the topics covered.

Book available.

The Father who had Two Sons

The story of "The Prodigal Son" retold by the exegete.

In this lecture the pericope of The Prodigal Son from the Gospel of Luke is dissected not only verse by verse, but even at a word level with the purpose of understanding its true meaning. Traditionally, we think of the prodigal son as the main actor of this beautiful parable, but this way its teaching is incomplete. After listening to this talk, the audience will understand why modern scholars prefer to title this pericope as "The Parable of the Loving Father".

This lecture is a perfect complement to the curriculum of your Bible Study Group.

 

The Road to Emmaus

A Biblical Exegesis Workshop

Learn a Biblical interpretation method based on the Narrative and Semiotic analysis. Then, apply this method to do an exegesis of the pericope of The Road of Emmaus.

This 2 hour workshop is a perfect complement to the curriculum of your Bible Study Group.
