The Adult Sunday School meets every Sunday from
9:00 am to 9:45 am in Ford Hall !!
Once you decide the fundamentalist approach to understanding the Bible is not working for you, where do you go from there? Reject the whole thing? Keep the parts you like, and throw out the rest? Give up and try not to think about it? How do you explain to someone else what you believe about the Bible?
If these questions resonate with you, then you might enjoy Reading the Bible Again for the First Time by Marcus Borg. The Adult Sunday School Group will begin a study of this book on September 21. The book is available from Amazon.com for about $10.00. We meet Sunday Mornings in Ford Hall at 9:00 am. All are welcome, and the coffee is free.
“Reading the Bible Again for the First Time" provides a much-needed solution to the problem of how to have a fully authentic yet contemporary understanding of the scriptures. Many mistakenly believe there are no choices other than fundamentalism or simply rejecting the Bible as something that can bring meaning to our lives. Answering this modern dilemma, acclaimed author Marcus Borg reveals how it is possible to reconcile the Bible with both a scientific and critical way of thinking and our deepest spiritual needs, leading to a contemporary yet grounded experience of the sacred texts.”
