Seekers and Sponges Sunday Morning Class

Seekers and Sponges Sunday Morning Class

Meeting @ 8:30AM In-person and Zoom

 Click HERE or the button below to join Seekers & Sponges by Zoom. 

Seekers and Sponges has started a new five part video series by Richard Rohr called  'Embracing an Alternative Orthodoxy'.  In this series, Richard Rohr explores five topics central to Franciscan theology and practice:

1.     Atonement Theory
2.     Eco-Spirituality
3.     The Christ who Existed before Christianity
4.     Orthopraxy vs. Verbal Orthodoxy (Living Like Jesus)
5.     Mysticism over Moralism

Each session starts with a video and then our class will discuss reflections from the talk. Our discussions are lively and bring out various perspectives about how faith impacts our lives.   Please join us in the multimedia classroom at the end of the hallway.  Your faith walk will be deepened as a result!

Exploring the Bible Together

Exploring the Bible Together

Zoom Bible Study every Tuesday from 6:30pm -7:30pm

 In our “Exploring the Bible Together” study, we meet by Zoom as a small group for about 45 minutes each week. Our study covers a wide range of topics, examining more closely the history, content, context, development, message, and interpretation of the Bible. As we do this, we grow in our understanding of the relevance and application of the Bible for our lives today.

We have begun a new study series on the Gospel of Matthew.  This church year the majority of our gospel readings will come from Matthew.  It is a beautiful writing which shares the story of Jesus in a pwerful way.

Anyone is welcome to join us - no experience with Bible study (or even the Bible) is necessary!

Three Expressions of the Church

We are part of one church body organized in three expressions — congregations, synods, and the churchwide organization. Each expression has its particular functions but all three together share a common mission of doing God’s work in the world and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Together, they ensure a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA.

 

Congregation: Peace Lutheran Church
Synod: Southwestern Texas Synod
Churchwide: ELCA
