Bible Study via Zoom
2026-07-07 18:14
Monthly Bible Study
We will be discussing “Reading the Bible Badly.” The book is authored by Dr. Karl Kuhn, a professor at Lakeland University in Wisconsin, and a former student of our own Clint McCann! As Clint wrote on the back jacket of the book, “Kuhn is very accessible and effectively exposes the bad readings of Scripture that are so prevalent today; and he shows us how to read the Bible in a way that honors its original cultural contexts, its dynamic nature, and its ever-present call to compassion, hospitality and love.”
If interested in participating, please contact Pastor Sarah.
