Book Study with Pastor Susie
Freeing Jesus – Begins March 9
Wednesday Evenings at 6:30 PM
Join me for a Wednesday evening study of the book, Freeing Jesus: Rediscovering Jesus as Friend, Teacher, Savior, Lord, Way, and Presence by Diana Butler Bass, beginning March 9.
Here’s a brief description of the book:
How can you still be a Christian? This is the most common question Diana Butler Bass is asked today. It is a question that many believers ponder as they wrestle with disappointment and disillusionment in their church and its leadership. But while many Christians have left their churches, they cannot leave their faith behind.
In Freeing Jesus, Bass challenges the idea that Jesus can only be understood in static, one-dimensional ways and asks us to instead consider a life where Jesus grows with us and helps us through life’s challenges in several capacities: as Friend, Teacher, Savior, Lord, Way, and Presence.
Freeing Jesus is an invitation to leave the religious wars behind and rediscover Jesus in all his many manifestations, to experience Jesus beyond the narrow confines we have built around him. It renews our hope in faith and worship at a time when we need it most.
The paperback will be available just in time for our study and I would be happy to order you a copy so you’ll have it on March 9. If you’d like one, please email pastorsusie@bayshorechurch.org This class will be offered in person and on Zoom. If you’d like to join via Zoom, please email me for the link.
