-----
A seminar-style course for anyone who is at a point of readiness to ask some challenging questions about faith, or for anyone whose life experience has led to these questions—this course invites those very questions. Using as a framework the book Living the Questions: The wisdom of progressive Christianity (David M. Felton and Jeff Procter-Murphy, HarperOne: 2012), the discussion will be facilitated by a wide array of characters from local parishes and ministries. Everyone will have an opportunity to contribute to the exploration.
Living the Questions (a copy is included in the course fee) is written at an accessible level while still holding to a rigorous examination of important issue to faith and formation.
