Bend Group Discussion – Into the Deep, Seeking God in the 21st Century

The Marcus J. Borg Foundation hosted author and theologian Michael Morwood in June at Trinity. Michael spoke about “Seeing Jesus through a 21st Century Lens.” There was much discussion and engagement about his thoughts, perceptions, and scholarship. Many wanted an opportunity to continue the conversation. We are going to do just that.

Six gatherings have been scheduled in St. Helens Hall for Into the Deep, Seeking God in the 21st Century (renamed from Continuing the Conversation). All are on the second Saturday of the month, beginning November 10th, and will begin at 9 AM. Everyone is welcome to attend, whether or not you were able to attend the original session with Michael Morwood.

Rev. Marianne Borg, founder of the Marcus J. Borg Foundation (sponsor for these conversations), and Rev. Bill Ellis co-lead these sessions. We will provide a frame for the morning and guidelines for listening. We count on your participation and learning from one another.

We look forward to welcoming a diverse and ecumenical group. Get the word out to friends and neighbors who are seeking a safe, encouraging, thoughtful exploration of faith, religious and spiritual experience, and Christianity in the 21st century.

The topic of this meeting is “Winter Landscape and Unpacking the Christmas Stories.”
