Sunday Morning Forum: Examined Lives

This spring, our Sunday Morning Forum, 9:15-10:10 am, will be embarking on a theology series.

Each week, you will be introduced to a theologian whose life and legacy has shaped our own thought about what it means to be children of God.  The facilitator will introduce you to the theologian’s life and times, and then to one theological question that preoccupied them (and may still preoccupy you!).

Here is the schedule:
