Water Brueggemann: Summer Scholars
Old Testament scholar Walter Brueggeman will lead this year’s Summer Scholars program, July 23-25 on the seminary campus. Called “An Invitation to the Contemporary Church: Opening Ourselves to Wonder/Practicing Risky Faith,” Brueggemann’s course will offer insights, challenges, and hopeful directions for the church (and congregations) seeking to live the faith with courage in this tumultuous time.
Based on his new book, Mandate to Difference: An Invitation to the Contemporary Church, Brueggemann’s presentations will focus on the biblical witness and theological claims that call us out of fear and desire for safety into awe, wonder, and daring discipleship.
This conference is for all persons —clergy, educators, and laity—who are concerned with the church’s witness and work today. For more information, go to www.ctsnet.edu/lifelong/calendar/index.asp Then go to the date of the event.
