This fall, we will study N.T. Wright’s Paul: A Biography

Wright offers a radical look at the apostle Paul, illuminating the humanity and remarkable achievements of this intellectual who invented Christian theology, transforming a faith and changing the world. 

The classes will consist of group discussions, rather than lectures. Rhea Bucy and Bob Buchanan will facilitate the discussion using the texts and scriptural passages N.T. Wright, the author, cites in the book.

Women’s Bible Study: The Anchor That Holds
7:00 pm 
Meets every other Sunday
The study starts tonight at Kim Crafton's home.
W.B. Yeats once said, “Things fall apart.” They do. But we believe, in the words of Craig Barnes, that “God is not nearly done pulling together the things that have fallen apart.” Join us for a 7-part series where we make space to wrestle with the things that fall apart and the One that holds all things together.
