SUMMARY:Bend Discussion - Into the Deep
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Here \nInto the Deep Introduction\nIn 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. \nApril 13th Discussion – Palm Sunday and Resurrection\nOn Saturday\, April 13\, the day before Palm Sunday\, we will have our final conversation and plunge “Into the Deep” for this spring. \nThe 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. \nMarianne 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. \nIf 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. \nRSVP Here

According to the Christian liturgical year we will be in the season of Lent. Lent is a time when the question is called about what matters to us\, what we think is possible\, what we think about the human condition\, and the purpose or meaning of life. In keeping with the prompt of the season we will explore WORLDVIEW; our “philosophy of life” or concept of the world. Worldviews are not just individual. They reflect society’s understanding of life as well. We will reflect on our own view of things\, how we got there\, and how it shapes our hopes and fears. We will also include a discussion of Beauty. Which Augustine suggested we cannot live without. \nAll are welcome. Please join us even if this is your first time! \nRSVP Here

This month they will explore MYSTICISM; why it might not only be important but imperative to reexamine and redefine it. At best mysticism has been considered an experience of union with ultimate reality. More pejoratively it has been considered esoteric\, occult\, supernatural\, nebulous\, fuzzy\, privatized. Albeit a realm available to “religious specialists\,” which excludes most of us. We want to unfetter the “mystical experience” from “secret” or “hidden” knowledge and bring it into the every day. Where we experience it. \nCome join in the conversation! All are welcome. This is a free event opportunity. \nRSVP Here
