The Layman’s Guide to the Lectionary is a full-length Bible study, aiming for roughly 60 minutes, on the LCMS’s three-year lectionary, the Old Testament, Epistle, and Gospel texts for the upcoming Sunday. My current plan is to publish this on Wednesday mornings, although it’s often Thursday.
Here you can access all the episodes of “The Layman’s Guide to the Lectionary” podcast quickly and easily that you may learn about the Bible readings for that weekend of the Church year. A PDF of the current Church Year can be found on the LCMS’s website
here. If the readings for a particular Sunday repeat across different years, like Reformation Sunday, you’ll find a (A, B, C) notation beside the day.
*Note that the texts in the season of Pentecost can be called either the ___th Sunday after Pentecost, which is specific to that calendar year, or they can be Proper ___, based more on the Church year. In the podcast recordings, I called them by the Pentecost name, but since those move each year, here I labeled them by their Propers name. So use the link for the calendar above to see which Proper is coming up and ignore my opening label in the show.
