Exploring the Big Issues of a New Millenium
|
Pauline Simonsen and friends |
What does God have to say about the big issues of our time? The environment and global climate change; bi- and multi-culturalism; sexual politics and gender roles; bio-ethics; science and faith; religion in politics… Each week a guest speaker will identify the points of debate in an issue, and will explore Christian theology to see what God and his word might bring to the issue. |
A Long Obedience in the Same Direction
|
Darren Birch |
Friedrich Nietzsche wrote, "The essential thing 'on heaven and earth' is ... a long obedience in the same direction." In this course, we will explore the lives of faithful men and women who help us wrestle with the question, what makes life meaningful and purposeful? Darren Birch is on the All Saints staff. He has lectured at Ladlaw College and served around the world doing cross-cultural church planting. Darren and his wife Cheri run an open home for people on the margins. |
