Priest, Prophet, King Study Guide

The study guide to this deeply biblical program was written by notable Catholic writer and apologist, Carl Olson, under Fr. Barron’s direction. It includes commentary, Questions for Understanding, and Questions for Application. The six lessons include: Adoratio: Adam as Priest, The High Priest, Challenging False Worship: Elijah the Prophet, The Word Made Flesh, Ordering the Kingdom: King David, and King of Kings.

The better we understand Jesus, the better we understand ourselves. But 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, Father Barron affirms that we see Jesus most clearly through the lens of the Old Testament.
