Adult Learning Forums

The Adult Learning Committee will continue a sixpart series on religion and society. The final three forums will be held in January (15th, 22nd, 19th). In addition, there will be one forum offered in December. Tentatively, the topics that will be covered are:
January 15th — Budget forum by Trustees
January 22nd — The Price of Freedom Denied (Religious freedom, persecution, and conflict around the world)
January 29th — The Plot to Kill God (Religion and Faith in the former Soviet Union)
February 5th — The Crusades, Christianity, and Islam (How Much of the Conventional Wisdom Concerning the Crusades is Wrong)

Basic Bible Study

We are studying the book of Romans, which has deeply influenced Christianity in many eras. The kickoff meeting will provide an overview of the series and discuss the schedule for the fourteen lessons. Due to various Sundays with conflicts this year, we will have our first lesson on Sept. 18, followed by a break for the Church Picnic. The study is designed to provide background for anyone with any level of familiarity with the Bible. We openly share ideas and welcome questions. Please feel free to bring a lunch and join us in the Friendship room to learn more about the series, or contact John Heberling for more information.
