History of Christianity: The First 1000 Years
Wednesdays April 18 - May 23, 2012
10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Have you ever wondered what happened to the 12 Apostles?
Do you wonder what the Holy Roman Empire was?
How did St. Patrick, Constantine, and Charlemagne shape our Christian faith?
If you are curious about the answers to these questions, sign up for a 9 week class that covers all of these topics and more!
Each class session will view a 45 minute video, followed by discussion.
To enhance your learning, you can read along from "The Story of Christianity" by Michael Collins and Matthew A. Price, a book that will be provided by the church.
The videos and book tell the story of our Christian faith in a relaxed but informative way, with pictures, historical facts, and mini-articles.
Author, J. Ellsworth Kalas opens new possibilities of insight into the familiar Ten Commandments. Restating them in the positive, Kalas explores how these “prohibitive” laws actually are our dear friends, intended to make life richer and more fulfilling. Kalas uses contemporary illustrations and personal experience to show how these timeless laws give us an appetite for divine excellence.
- Discover how the law was meant to make life richer and more fulfilling;
- Gain new insights into positive possibilities for holy living.
There is a sign-up sheet in the main hall under the Adult Ministry bulletin board. Please sign up or contact the church office if you are interested in this group so that we have enough books for everyone. If you have any questions, please contact Cathy Allison.
