Connections Live! 2012
September 28-29
Temple, TX
BARBARA WENDLAND, a life long Methodist and author of Misfits: The Church's Hidden Strength
is hosting Connections Live! 2012 on September 28-29, in her hometown of Temple, TX. The event will be an opportunity for thoughtful, forward-looking Christians to meet in person, in order to reassure each other that even though our views may be in a minority in our churches or local communities, we're not alone; to see how we might promote needed change in the church and the world; and to plan how to support each other in concrete, practical ways.
Talks and a workshop on Friday evening and Saturday morning will be presented by Dr. Robin R. Meyers, tenured professor at Oklahoma City University, and author of Saving Jesus from the Church: How to Stop Worshiping Christ and Start Following Jesus; The Underground Church: Reclaiming the Subversive Way of Jesus, and others.
PROGRESSIVE CHRISTIAN ADULT CURRICULUM
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR SUNDAY SCHOOL CURRICULUM FOR THIS FALL?
FAITHANDREASON® audio and video productions are deliberately designed to promote critical thinking about faith and religious practice. There are many who claim that "thinking" is somehow the enemy of a sustaining faith. We categorically reject that notion and say faith without critical thinking is blind, unaware and often dangerous.
