In the next class, Revelation 1-3 will be discussed. Remember our 3 interpretives lenses: letter, prophecy, and apocalypse!

The Book of Revelation has left many of us with our heads spinning or with nightmares of what is to come.  But it’s actually a book of great hope and profound honesty as it reflects on God’s presence in times of turmoil and how God is leading everything to a conclusion that will be free of illness, injustice and pain.  We are invited to long for the day when we will see Jesus face to face and enjoy his eternal reign.

Powerful Tools for Caregivers is a series of class to support caregivers in taking care of themselves while caring for someone else.

Whether you are caring for a spouse with a chronic condition, aging parents or a friend down the street or in a care facility miles away, you will benefit from this class! Participants will receive practical help reducing stress, improving their confidence as caregivers, managing time demands, communicating clearly in challenging situations, making tough decisions, and finding helpful resources.

 The Trinity Forum interviews thoughtful Christian guides for our faith. Scott Ross will lead us in a discussion of A World Transformed. In the context of the pagan classical world, the Christian faith was a shocking inversion of the values and structures of the time, and its explosive growth was unimaginable. How can we embrace the true radical nature of our faith and share it with the world today? Historian Tom Holland’s landmark book; Dominion: How the Christian Revolution Remade the World; calls attention to these puzzles and paradoxes. Coming to the material as a historian of the classical world, he was amazed at the rupture that Christianity represented and then followed that story over the millennia.

Scott is an elder on Session, a thoughtful follower of Christ, and a gifted teacher and facilitator.
