A Chosen Faith
The latest manifestation of the book study on "A Chosen Faith" has begun with a nice group of lively seekers meeting after Sunday service. The first meeting was held on October 15 during which we introduced ourselves and shared our spiritual backgrounds. Those who would still like to join can do so by attending our next session on November 12 when we will discuss Part One of the book: "Awakening and Experience." We have copies of this fine book for sale at $10, as well as one available for borrowing.
All this is to say that it isn't too late to join! There will be only one session in November, the 12th, and two in December, the 3rd and 17th. We will decide on January meetings later on.
Along with studying "A Chosen Faith" we are going to work at building our own theological lexicon, starting with key words from the title: Choice, and Faith. Do we chose or is all determined for us? Is faith believing something without evidence, or a hopeful life stance? The UU approach is that all such religious terms are defined by ourselves based on sharing with others, including the wisdom of the past.
Happy reading.
