The Declaration of Independence is one of the most theologically audacious documents ever written, insisting that human equality is not a political invention but a divine gift, that rights come not from kings or constitutions but from the Creator himself. Where did those ideas come from, who believed them, and do they still hold true? This summer, we dig into the founding documents, the faith of the Founders, and the explosive question of what it means 250 years later to be both a Christian and an American.

Explore the healing ministry of Jesus in community and through the study of gospel passages. Our primary text will be the gospel healing accounts of Jesus’ call, mission, and ministry rooted in his saving life, death, and resurrection through which he pours out forgiveness, new life, and empowerment to be his hands, his feet, and his heart of compassion in this world. We will also become a community of practice as we study how Jesus imparted wholeness and engage in the practice of Christian healing prayer with one another. There will be a small soup dinner provided. Registration is required.
