What is the Bible?

This Fall, Rev Jill and Rev Terry will lead an adult forum on the Bible: what is it? who wrote it? what is included – and what was left out?

Sunday mornings at 9:15 beginning October 6.

What is the Bible?

Adult Formation this Fall — Sundays at 9:15

Each Sunday we hear passages from four unique sections of the Bible, our sacred scripture. This book is foundational to who we are and how we understand the world around us and our relationship to the world. And yet, many of us often feel like we “don’t get” what’s in the Bible, and so we avoid reading it.

Join Rev Jill and Rev Terry this October and November as we unpack the question, “What is the Bible?”

Sunday, Oct 6 – Our Questions: what is the Bible? Who wrote it? Is it divinely inspired? How should we read it? who is it about?

Sunday, Oct 13 – Torah, Prophets, and Wisdom: the Making of the Old Testament

Sunday, Oct 20 – Understanding the Old Testament/Hebrew Scriptures

Sunday, Oct 27 – How the New Testament came to be

Sunday, Nov 3 – What about Dan Brown and all those other gospels that aren’t in our Bible?

Sunday, Nov 10 – How Language Matters: Hebrew, Greek, Latin, and English Translations
