Senses of Scripture: Medieval Biblical Interpretation

April 12 through May 3

What, if anything, does Medieval Biblical Interpretation have to offer us in the 21st century? Come join Covenant Class this April to find out! We’ll look at how the “senses of Scripture”—a multifaceted approach to interpreting the Bible—offers a richer encounter with Scripture than sheer literalism or empty historicism. Along with an overview and exploration of Medieval Biblical Interpretation, we’ll have a chance to test out these methods in class as well as think through the larger purposes and aims of exegesis. All are welcome!
Contact Will Wellman, wwellman@nashvillewpc.org, with any questions.

Westminster Book Group
9:30 a.m. • Fellowship
10:00 a.m. • Presentation


Jonathan Rauch, author of Cross Purposes, asserts that the religion of mainline Christianity (the Presbyterian Church in the US and others) has become ’too thin to provide meaning and morals to the culture and thus to reliably support a democratic society’.  We will discuss Rauch’s assertion and his suggestions for addressing the apparent dysfunction in our society and its current government. Rauch, a life-long atheist, says:  ‘Don’t be afraid.  Imitate Jesus.’ 
Led by John Bailey.
