Bend Discussion – Into the Deep
April 13, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 11:30 am
Free
Into the Deep Introduction
In June of 2018 the Marcus J. Borg Foundation sponsored our first lecture weekend with speaker Michael Morwood. Following that event many asked us to continue to provide opportunity to explore and re-imagine what it means to be “religious,” “spiritual,” “Christian,” “none,” “other…”. We are doing just that on the second Saturday of the month in Bend. We invite you to loosen your moorings and venture with us “Into the Deep.” All are welcome.
April 13th Discussion – Palm Sunday and Resurrection
On Saturday, April 13, the day before Palm Sunday, we will have our final conversation and plunge “Into the Deep” for this spring.
The topic will be Palm Sunday and Resurrection. We will consider why the story of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem is provocative and important. And how the story poignantly contrasts rival kingdoms. We will also puzzle about resurrection, even resurrection of the body, and what we think it means for us today.
Marianne Borg and Bill Ellis will continue “Into the Deep” on second Saturdays beginning in October, 2019 and continuing through April 2020. We will meet at St. Helen’s Hall at Trinity Episcopal Church, Bend.
If you have not been with us before, come April 13 and be part of the conversation. It is not too late to join us. Each session stands on its own. Come and gather with a wonderful group of people. All are welcome. The sessions are free.
