Living the Questions

Leader:   Rev. Mark Dove
Dates:  Begins Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2010
Time:   7:00-8:30 p.mLocation:  C109/110
Cost:   None

Living the Questions is a  study created and designed by the United Methodist Church to enable laity and clergy to reflect on the critical questions we face in connecting our faith with the everyday demands placed upon us.  The input for each session is a 15-20 minute DVD presentation using a variety of top flight theologians coming from a variety of perspectives.  The last hour-plus will be spent in dialogue with the presenters and with each other.

Because of the focus on dialogue, it is necessary that the class be small enough in size that all will have the opportunity to contribute to the dialogue.  The class will be limited to the first 25 persons to sign up.  This means that, in fairness to all involved, the commitment to be in the class means the willingness to attend on a regular basis.

Jenelle and I are looking forward to this opportunity to the give and take of these sessions which will allow all of us to grow in our faith and commitment to the church and the world.       - Rev. Mark Dove
