Reflecting on The Sermon on the Mount (1213-28)
Journey Inward; Journey Outward
Bonnie Thurston, Author, Educator, Spiritual Director and Former Professor of New Testament, PTS
This is a special offering in our ongoing series of workshops for Christian educators, pastors, and all who work in educational ministries in the Church. Rather than the usual format of a morning keynote presentation and afternoon individual workshops, this is an all-day event with teacher, Bonnie Thurston. After a brief introduction to the Sermon and its structure, we shall consider the Beatitudes (Matthew 5:3-12 – and perhaps write some of our own), the matter of perfection (Matthew 5:43-48), and what it might mean to be obedient to Jesus’ teaching in the Sermon. There will be time to ask your most burning questions about Matthew 5-7. / Tues., April 16, 2013 / 9:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. / $30 / 0.6 CEUs
