Jan. 8-Feb. 5: Marcus Borg—Embracing an Adult Faith. In this five-part DVD series, Borg, a well-known author and Biblical scholar, conducts a dialogue with a small and diverse group of adults as they, honestly and sometimes painfully, confront Christianity's most fundamental questions and work together toward their own personal and authentic answers. Feb. 12-26: John Shelby Spong—Jesus for the Non-Religious. Spong, whose books have sold more than a million copies, was bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark for 24 years before his retirement in 2001. His admirers acclaim him as a teaching bishop who makes contemporary theology accessible to ordinary lay people. This DVD distills Spong's understanding of the God presence in Christ and is a companion piece to his book of the same title. Sundays, 8:30-9:30 a.m. in the Library; call to arrange child care.
