April 29. Our new series, to begin Saturday, May 22, is based on the book Freeing Jesus by Diana Butler Bass. She contends that our experience of Jesus has changed over the years, viewing him in different ways at different times. Freeing Jesus explores the many images of Jesus we encounter and embrace through a lifetime—and how our faith is informed by the lives we live. It invites us to liberate Jesus and free ourselves when it comes to the ever-compelling and yet often-elusive figure at the center of Christian faith.
Please join us for Peace Conversations at a new time—9:00 to 10:00 am on Saturday mornings—and invite a friend, as we explore questions in Freeing Jesus. You are welcome to read the book, but reading the book is not necessary to participate. You can find the book at Cokesbury or Amazon.
Zoom invitations will be sent out weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays, beginning May 19.
