The Foolishness of the Cross
Sundays, Feb. 22-March 22

In the service for Good Friday, we say together a centuries-old prayer attributed to St. Francis: “We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you, because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.” During Lent, we’ll move from our walk through the life and teachings of Jesus to focus on the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus. What does it mean to say that Christ has redeemed the world by His holy cross? Join us for this series paired with our Wednesday Lenten Series as we reflect on the central saving mystery of our faith.

Listen to the class recordings.

Feb. 22: The Rev. Dane Boston
March 1: The Rev. Dr. Wesley Hill
March 8: The Rt. Rev. Dr. George Sumner
March 15: The Rev. Timothy Jones
March 22: Dr. Kristen Deede Johnson


World Upside Down: Living the Resurrection
Sundays, April 12-May 17

After the cross and the resurrection of Jesus, now what? As we keep following the story of the Bible, we’ll talk about the birth of the Church in the book of Acts, the Gospel of grace in the letters of Paul, the shape of the Christian life and, finally, the Bible’s conclusion with the book of Revelation. And we’ll recap what we’ve learned this year about the whole story of the Bible, as a single story with the Gospel of our risen Lord and Savior at its heart.
