provided.


COME TO OUR ADULT BOOK STUDY!

Donalee will be leading a second group in the new year to discuss Colby Martin’s book ‘UNCLOBBER –

RETHINKING OUR MISUSE OF THE BIBLE ON HOMOSEXUALITY’.  Please purchase a book or call the church office which has one book available to be borrowed.  Gather for lunch in the Fellowship Room after coffee time from Sunday, January 8 – Sunday, February 12.  Discussion of the book will be from 12:30 – 2 p.m.  Please print your name on the sign-up sheet located on the hallway bulletin board opposite the Fellowship Room kitchen so that we know how many people to prepare lunch for.

‘Armed with only six passages in the Bible – often known as the “Clobber Passages” – the conservative Christian position has been one that stands against the full inclusion of our LGBTQ siblings.  UnClobber reexamines each of those frequently quoted passages of Scripture, alternating with author Colby Martin’s own story of being fired from an evangelical megachurch when they discovered his stance on sexuality.

UnClobber reexamines what the Bible says (and does not say) about homosexuality in such a way that sheds divine light on outdated and inaccurate assumptions and interpretations.  This new edition equips study groups and congregations with questions for discussion and a sermon series guide for preachers.’
