Wednesday Night Bible Study

"Stewards of Creation", Wednesdays 

7-8:30pm, Sep 18-Nov 6 (8 weeks).  

Join us for this important course, taught by Shawn Thomas.

About the class: The Church has historically been party to the poor treatment of God’s earth.  Scripture has been used to justify this degradation. But it can be a rich resource for a holistic vision of God’s redemption of all creation.  Scripture can also be an effective tool for critiquing the materialism and anthropocentrism that undergird many environmentally destructive practices today. The purpose of the class will be to explore the selected passages with the goal of fashioning an ecological theology. The basic format for the class would be an introductory prayer, reading aloud (at a least a portion of) the selected text, and then discussing the text through an ecological lens. The class will end with a closing prayer.
