Faith Meets Faith—On Earth and in Heaven? Oct. 26-8 Print E-mail

With Mark Heim, PhD, professor of Christian Theology at Andover Newton Theological School.

The Wilcox Lecture weekend this year will help us address one of the major religious and cultural questions of our time: in the context of our diverse world, how shall Christians think about other religions and salvation? This issue and all those that come in its wake are not merely matters of personal curiosity; today such deep and critical theological questions are filling our political, cultural and religious world.

ANNOUNCEMENTS DURING WORSHIP Print E-mail

Announcements are important to the life of our church - they teach us about opportunities for spiritual growth, fellowship, education and mission.  However, lengthy announcements detract from the reason we have gathered, which is to worship God.  So we ask, out of consideration for all who need to make announcements, that your announcement be very brief, calling attention to the complete announcement in the bulletin.  Also, announcing an event once or twice is helpful; more than that is too much.  Please feel free to use the Landmark to give everyone a “heads up” of an event happening in the future.  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
