All are welcome!
Please join us even if this is your first time!
This Sunday’s session will focus on a chapter from John Shelby Spong’s book Liberating the Gospels, Reading the Bible with Jewish Eyes.
 
The Chapter, entitled ”He Died According to the Scriptures” is Spong’s exploration of ways in which certain Old Testament scriptures were used to shape the Gospels’ telling of Jesus’ story. His analysis posits that the Gospels were not biographies so much as faith proclamations of the early Christians. 
 
Spong, who passed away last year, was the Episcopal Bishop of Newark, New Jersey, from 1979 to 2000, and a liberal Christian theologian who authored numerous books advocating a
rethinking of Christian belief.
