Donn Morgan, “Fighting with the Bible: Why Scripture Divides Us and How It Can Bring Us Together”
Mondays, 6:45 – 9:00pm
September 15, September 22, September 29, October 6

Have you ever been confused or frustrated by the way the Bible is used to prove others, including other Christians, wrong? Have you ever been angered by the way the Bible is seen to explain natural catastrophes as signs of God's will? Or have you ever been opposed to those using the Bible to justify war or peace? Too often Christians take conflicting opinions and perspectives within the Bible and use them to fight with each other.

Epiphany has been invited to participate in this short course which will explore the character and challenge of difference in the Bible, offering a way of using it to deal constructively with include readings from the Bible and Fighting with the Bible, as well as other suggested texts. Participants will engage the issues and contemporary issues that often divide us. The Bible is both the problem and the solution for finding ways to move from division to communion. Each week will one another in discussion. Experiences from the course will contribute to the creation of a published study guide to Fighting with the Bible, available free to all participants. Donn Morgan, author of the book and one of Epiphany’s guest preachers will teach this class this fall.

Please sign up with the church office. Hope to see you there!

Today is MANNA SUMMER RESTOCK SUNDAY,

MANNA, the Conejo Valley Food Bank, needs our support. Families who rely on school lunch and breakfast programs for their children will have increased need for help over the summer when school is not in session. And the need overall has increased while US Government food subsidy donations have decreased. Fill an extra bag or two at the supermarket and bring it to church on June 1. Outreach volunteers will deliver your gifts on Tuesday the next week. Our focus for summer is breakfast and lunch items, but any of the supplies on the Manna Wish List will be appreciated any time. Pick up and delivery of items is made after services each Sunday.
