This year's Lenten Study will be using When Christians Get It Wrong by Adam Hamilton, Senior Pastor of UM Church of the Resurrection Leawood, Kansas.
More and more young adults have opted out of Christianity and the church. The reason? Christians.
When young adults talk about the problems they have with Christianity and the church, they often name certain attitudes and behaviors they believe are practiced too often by Christians: judging others, condemning people of other faiths, rejecting science, injecting politics into faith, and being anti-homosexual. With this familiar style, Adam Hamilton tackles these issues and addresses the how's and why's of Christians getting it right when it comes to being Christ in the world.
Those who read When Christians Get It Wrong will gain a different way of understanding the issues that keep people away from Christianity and keep Christians from living a more compelling faith. Because, honestly, if we don't start getting it right, we may lose an entire generation.
Lenten Study groups will start meeting the week of March 13th.
There is a sign-up sheet posted in the church entryway.
Please indicate the DAY and TIME OF DAY that you would like to meet. We will try to accommodate. Your choice on dates and times for Study Groups.
