Discussion Series: "The God of Intimacy and Action"

 2010 Winter Discussion Series

Sundays Jan. 17 - March 28, 9:30 a.m. at the Good Shepherd Rectory
 Monday February 1 - March 29, 7:30 p.m. at the Good Shepherd Rectory

based on the book
THE GOD OF INTIMACY AND ACTION:

written by Tony Campolo and Mary Albert Darling

 

The book reflects the authors' passion about the transforming importance of honoring both the faith impulses to worship and to serve those in need, and to take arms against the injustice of the world.  Its message, and its practical approach to discovering our own spiritual depths and specific practices of faith, are important for Good Shepherd at this time in our parish growth and transformation.  All are welcome.  Copies of the book are available at the church or at the class for $10 cash/check.
