Parables as Invitation
March 29, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Parables as Invitation: Bringing Our Lives Into Conversation with the Parables of Jesus. In this class, we’ll be invited to bring our lives into conversation with the parables of Jesus, asking:
- What can we learn about first-century Galilee and Judea that can help us hear Jesus’ parables closer to how the people who first heard them did?
- How does each gospel writer influence the re-telling of Jesus’ stories?
- What words, images, and messages resonate today as we listen?
This on-line course will meet on eight Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8 pm beginning March 29. We’ll be joined by several guest instructors, including Pr. Joan Beck and Pr. Tyler Beane Kelly. The course is designed with a Lutheran lens and inclusive heart; all are welcome. See the course flyer for details on dates and topics. Course participants and/or their congregations are encouraged to donate, as they are able, on a sliding scale between $20-$160, but donations are not required to participate.
