“Saving Jesus”(Progressive Christianity Study)

“Kidnapped by the Christian right. Discarded by the secular left. Jesus needs saving.” Keystone is offering “Saving Jesus,” a 12-episode video exploration of a credible Jesus for the 21st Century. With insights from 25 specialists, such as Marcus Borg, Walter Brueggemann, John Dominic Crossan, Matthew Fox, Amy-Jill Levine, Helen Prejean, and many more, this resource is already well respected by hundreds of progressive Christian communities. This study will pick up again with the fifth topic on January 11th, and will run on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays (with the exception of “Ash Wednesday, Feb. 22), beginning at 6:30 with a potluck in Battson Hall (soup is always available). Class runs from 7-8:30. ALL are welcome! Please bring a friend or 2!
