Join us for a discussion of the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict on Sunday, October 5 from 11:15 to 12:15 pm in the Sanctuary. In his book Chosen?, Walter Brueggemann explores the situation in modern-day Israel that raises questions for many Christians who are easily confused when reading biblical accounts of God’s saving actions with the Israelites. Are modern Israeli citizens the descendants of the Israelites in the Bible whom God called chosen? Was the promise of land to Moses permanent and irrevocable? What about others living in the promised land? How should we read the Bible in light of the modern situation? Who are the Zionists, and what do they say? These and others questions will be discussed as we examine how the understanding of scripture is impacting this conflict. Reading the book is not required.

Grab a coffee and join Linda Boesl for this adult education hour in the Sanctuary.
