John Wesley was the original advocate for racial justice. We will talk about John Elford's book, "Our Hearts Were Strangely Lukewarm," which provides a portrayal of the Methodist church's complicated historical relationship with racism. We will discuss why it is important to understand where we've been in order to move toward a more racially just future. Led by Chris Benson.
Group DetailsMondays, June 23 & 30, 6pm at CUMC
The Bible tells us that we have all been given gifts from the Spirit that we are to use to serve one another and build up the body of Christ. In this class, we will introduce the concept of spiritual gifts that will allow us to determine where our spiritual gifts lie. This class will give insight into what each gift contributes and how they all complement each other. We will learn about the Servant Profile (what we are equipped to do), Personal Style (how to serve authentically best), and Ministry Passion (where you are most motivated to serve).
This class will be an introductory class to a 4-6 week session offered later in the year, but can also serve as a stand-alone to learning more about yourself and where God has intended you to shine. Led by Stephanie Baity and Sue Baxter.
