Into the Word
Who wrote the Bible?
Why do we argue over this ancient book?
What does it say to me?
Dig into the messy, beautiful, and complex collection of writings at the center of Christian practice. Led by leading scholars from diverse faith perspectives, learn about the Bible’s origins and what it means to read it skillfully, honestly, and with joy. We’ll think together about how Scripture can inform and enrich our everyday lives.
In-person sessions include dinner. Online discussion begins at 6pm ET.
Thursdays beginning October 16
5:30–8pm | Trinity Commons and online
