10:00 am: Book Study


January 14, 2023

New Book study starting in January! 

Join the Saturday Morning Discussion Group for a 9-session study of N.T. Wright's The Day the Revolution Began: Reconsidering the Meaning of Jesus's Crucifixion. In this book, the leading biblical scholar seeks to move beyond one-dimensional understandings of the cross, exploring how Jesus's earliest followers saw his death as playing a pivotal role in the larger biblical story of God's plan to work through his people to bring restoration and reconciliation to the world. We will meet on Saturday mornings at 10:00 a.m. beginning January 14th, meeting every two weeks until May 20th.

This book can be purchased on Amazon HERE, ordered from your local bookstore, or an ebook version is available to borrow from the Edmonton Public Library.
