What to Believe? Book Group
December 9 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Do you ever wonder what to believe in a world filled with uncertainty? Have you ever wondered what is God? Join Dcn. Jeffrey for a 3-week book group exploring John D. Caputo’s thought-provoking book,
What to Believe?: Twelve Brief Lessons in Radical Theology.
This book isn’t an easy read (though Caputo claims it is), and it is for believers, doubters, and everyone in between. Caputo challenges traditional ideas of God and religion, proposing a radical theology that emphasizes love, hope, and a mystical sense of life.
Each gathering will consist of a short contextualization presentation (a simple lecture) on the topics followed by a group discussion on the assigned reading.
Timeline: December 2, 9, and 16
Start time: 6:30pm
