Adult Christian Formation

Sunday School is Each Week


Luther Forum--Pastor Bill King, Great Room of the Campus Center

The Luther Forum is in the midst of a unit which examines how the historical fact that Jesus was an observant Jew affects how we understand his life and ministry.  Using Amy-Jill Levine's The Misunderstood Jew:  The Church and the Scandal of the Jewish Jesus as our springboard, we are exploring how understanding the historical context of Jesus' life might affect how we read Biblical texts and view his--and our--relationship to Judaism.  Books are available from Pastor King.  The forum meets during the Sunday School hour, beginning at 9:45, in the campus center.

Adult Discussion Group--Fred Rencsok, Fellowship Hall                                                                                                                  

The subtitle for the study will be "C.S. Lewis on Faith".  Come join the conversation.

Come and be a part of one of these groups.


Thursday Morning Group--Pastor Gary Schroeder, Conference Room of the Parish Life Center

This group  meets at 10:00 a.m. in the Conference Room of our Parish Life Center.  Our first meeting will be on January 5th.  The course surveys major developments in the history of Christian theology, which is the tradition of critical reasoning about how to teach the faith of Christ.   Come and join us as we learn how Christian theology has developed over the centuries. Each week’s lecture is a self-contained unit.

 

Friday Faith Discussion Group--Pastor Gary Schroeder, Conference Room of the Parish Life Center

The Friday Faith Discussion Group will begin meeting again, January 6th.  It gathers at 12:00 noon, also in the Conference Room of the Parish Life Center.  Feel free to bring your lunch with you and enjoy it while we engage in our conversations.  The book we will read is The Great Awakening by Jim Wallis.  



Book Club-Jan. 2


Starting Jan. 2 we will begin discussing Chapters 1-36 of our new book, In the Sanctuary of Outcasts, by Neil White.  As this book is filled with pictures and is an easy read, we will finish discussions on Jan. 16.  Also, Book Club decided to meet during the winter months regardless of school closings.  Meetings are at Showalter; Warm Hearth.
