New Adult Offering : Simply Good News by N.T. Wright

Why the Gospel is News and What Makes It Good

Class offerings will be held in the Guild Room
Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m.
Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m.
     
Best selling scholar  N.T Wright reveals what the Good News really is and how the church often gets the story wrong.  Biblically the Christian faith is presented as good news. That is the original meaning of the Old English word GOSPEL.  Somehow we have gotten confused.  N.T. Wright writes this book to challenge where we have taken this concept.  He submits that the news has turned into advice - advice on what to do, what not to do. How should we live, how should we pray? And front and center - what is the right path to get to heaven? What might be needed is to discern the difference between news and advice and then listen more closely to the news that Jesus and his first followers were all about.

Join us as Dr. Chuck Jones guides us through this important topic and discussion to a greater understanding of 'where in the world' Christians are with their faith.
