Thursday mornings, October 5 – November 2, 10 – 11:30 am
Today many Americans have concluded that Jesus never existed. In a time when cries of “fake news” are all around us, Christians have sometimes become prime examples of people who are willing to believe anything, even things that make now sense. But a century of study by archaeologists, historians, linguists and other scholars has revealed convincing evidence that Jesus of Nazareth did exist. Even though the church built on Jesus’ life hasn’t always followed his teachings, his wisdom can still guide us in our own time – witness the life and teachings of Martin Luther King, Jr. for just one example.
So consider joining us as we look at Jesus again through the eyes of writer and poet Jay Parini (Professor of English and Creative Writing at Middlebury College:
- October 5 Life in Ancient Palestine
- October 12 Jesus in Galilee
- October 19 From Galilee to Jerusalem
- October 26 From Gethsemane to Golgotha
- November 2 The Afterlife of Jesus
