Lay School of Theology Winter Classes
Jan. 27-Feb. 24

Have you ever found yourself wondering what Paul was thinking when he wrote his letter to the Romans, what the community of the early church looked like or what in the world Jesus was really saying with all those parables?

Consider joining us for our winter Lay School of Theology! These month-long classes meet once per week and dive into specific topics in theology and biblical studies. Our classes this winter include:

• Romans: Classic Text, Contemporary Manifesto for Faith

• Acts: New Communities by God's Grace
  Instructor: Sarah Henrich, Professor of New Testament

• The Parables: Illustrations of Jesus' Good but Strange News
  Instructor: Matthew Skinner, Associate Professor of New Testament
