Wednesdays, January 15 - March 11 Did you grow up in the Christian faith but still search for the right words to articulate it? Are you exploring the Christian faith? This course will explore the basic tenets of the Christian faith and provide the opportunity for asking the tough questions. Topics will include: How do we know Jesus lived and who was He? Why did He die? How can we have faith? How do we pray? How do we read the Bible? Dinner is provided with registration, although we suggest a $10 fee to cover costs. Childcare is available at no cost with pre-registration. We ask that attendees make a commitment to attend most classes and the retreat because the lessons build on each other and attending the whole course offers the richest experience.
