Jonah: More Than a Fish Tale
|
Sundays in June 9:00 - 9:50 am Room 218
You may have heard about Jonah being swallowed by a whale, but what about the rest of the story? The story of Jonah is a long tale that deals with surprisingly contemporary issues: resentments against national enemies, running away from God, revenge and forgiveness, anger at God and God's relentless grace.
June 28 The Big Pout
Our teacher is the engaging Bruce Miller. He is the artistic director for Virginia Repertory Theatre, a Presbyterian elder, and a seasoned Bible teacher who knows how to bring a story to life. Rosalind Banbury is his sidekick.
