God’s Radical Gospel: Topical Study During Epiphanytide
Tuesdays | 6:30 p.m.
January 13-February 10

The Good News (or Gospel) is that through Jesus, God has changed everything. Our liturgy proclaims this in our worship. Over 5 weeks, Michael Fitzpatrick will lead a study discussion group exploring two questions:

What is the Gospel?

And what are its implications for how we live our lives?

Each week the group will read a fresh essay to be discussed together. All essays will be provided in advance – see links below. We will meet every Tuesday for five weeks at 6:30 p.m. starting on January 13 in Tierney Parish Hall. If you’re not comfortable driving in the evenings, please ask a fellow parishioner or Michael Fitzpatrick for a ride to and from the church.
