Adult Religious Education — 23 December 2018
Please join us on Sunday (23 December 2018) at 9:15 AM for our adult religious education class.
We will be watching “Bono and Eugene Peterson: The Psalms.”
The inspiration for this delightful short film started with a thank you note: a video thank you note from noted philanthropist and U2 lead singer Bono to Biblical scholar Eugene Peterson for his modern translation of the Bible (The Message).
Bono, a committed Christian, was particularly moved by Peterson’s translation of the Psalms and this correspondence ultimately resulted in a meeting for the two of them and an afternoon of discussion that is deep, moving, and hilarious — sometimes all at the same time.
