A Sunday Evening Class
Living the Questions 2.0 - People know that at its core, Christianity has something good to offer the human race. At the same time, many have a sense that they are alone in being a "thinking" Christian and that "salvaging" Christianity is a hopeless task. What is needed is a safe environment where people have permission to ask the questions they've always wanted to ask but have been afraid to voice for fear of being thought a heretic. The format of each session includes a video, guided discussion, spiritual exercises and Bible study . The 20 minute videos for each session include conversation, sermon clips, lecture excerpts, and spiritual exercises for practical applications (including different forms of prayer and meditation, movement, walking the labyrinth, etc). The overall theme is that of faith as a journey, not a destination. Sundays, 6:00 p.m. in the Main Building, Parlor.
