This Advent, join us for a 4-week journey through Jesus’ birth narratives as told in the Gospels of Luke and Matthew. In “Light of the World: A Beginner’s Guide to Advent”, author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine will show us how the Gospel narratives connect to the Old Testament; highlight the role of women in first-century Jewish culture; and emphasize the importance of Mary’s visitation, the census, the stable, the star of Bethlehem, and the flight to Egypt.
Our study will meet on Thursday’s at 7, beginning December 1. Participants can join us online or in person. Copies of the book are available by contacting the church office.
