This Sunday, February 22 at 9:15: LENT: Part 2-Practicing Resurrection: Keeping Lent Alive- Lent started last week on February 18. Did it start without you? There are many, and often good reasons not to observe Lent. But at what costs? There is a wildness of our spirit that beckons us. Today's time together is an opportunity to speak about Lent and its season of ashes, because to go through life well, we must go through resurrection. With Saints Wendell Berry, Annie Dillard, Cornell West, and Kathleen Norris as companions, we seek to reframe "life" as "resurrection", the word that sponsors this program.
Presenter Marc Mullinax teaches religious studies, philosophy, critical thinking, the examined life, and world religions at Mars Hill University and Ewha Women's University in Seoul, Korea. He enjoys bringing insights (or is it spelled "incites"?) from these subjects to faith congregations in the WNC area. An "unrepentant Baptist minister," he looks forward to a lively time of discussion at First Congregational!
