Wednesday Night Adult Forums
These are held throughout the year.
Our First Adult ForumWednesday, October 9th
6:30-8:00 This book event will be for a single evening. Given the difficulty of successfully navigating this subject matter in a public forum, the conversation will be directed to specific
parts of the book which may more easily be engaged. We will focus on: Jesus’ teaching on love; what the author describes as “five innate moral values” (chapter 4); and your personal identification of what you would describe as your own life’s purpose (chapter 6). So, the invitation for our conversation this evening will be personal, without venturing into partisan politics. Your own private reading and reflection will be more far-ranging and challenging. To participate: Please notify Angie Wilfong by Monday, September 30. (ParishAdministrator@gracekeswick.org or 293-3549). or sign up below..... |

"How the Bible Actually Works"
Wednesdays, October 16 – November 13
6:30-8:00pm
Parish Hall
Many church-goers and others have a spiritual hunger for God and a respect for the Bible but at the same time frankly feel little desire to actually read the Bible. Perhaps they have tried to read the Bible in the past and were overwhelmed. Or they have a queasy unarticulated sense that something may just be wrong with them—or maybe even the Bible.
Enter a new book called “How the Bible Actually Works*” by Dr. Peter Enns. This book makes a daring effort at describing the nature of the Bible as a means for seeking wisdom, giving specific examples, and introducing major issues that the Bible addresses. The writing is readable, intellectually challenging, provocative, and surprisingly humorous.
As usual, there will be two different ways you may participate in this event: (1) Group Option (attending the gathering) and (2) Private Option (doing the reading without attending).
