Paul’s Letter to the Romans: Living by Faith
led by the Rev. Joe Behen
Come explore with us Paul’s vision of God’s reaching out to all of
humanity, and why our response to that reaching out matters. Faith for
Paul is more nuanced than to simply equate it with the modern notion of
belief. Faith is more closely approached for Paul in the living of lives
that incarnate a positive response to God’s call. This response, Paul
teaches, is possible for all but is the privileged possession of none.
In this three week class, we’ll examine Paul’s theology as presented to
the Christian communities in Rome, while discussing insights from this
document that might be fruitful for our own community.
Fall 2008
This course is offered to prepare candidates for confirmation, reception and reaffirmation in the Episcopal Church. These classes will be held Sunday mornings from 9:15-10 a.m. beginning this fall.
“A Journey of Faith” is designed to help every Christian—new or lifelong—to embark upon a path to life in Christ. Together, we will discover:
- Faith traditions: where we’ve been and where we are now.
- The history, tradition and unique practices of the Episcopal Church.
- Episcopal worship and what we believe.
These sessions will lay the groundwork to begin or continue a spiritual journey with Christ and our community. Woven throughout this series will be forums with clergy and other members and studies that fit the season. This is an opportunity to not only learn about the church but become a part of our faith community through participation and fellowship.
Whether new to the Christian faith, the Episcopal faith tradition or are simply seeking a renewal as an Episcopalian, please make plans participate in this offering. Not sure if you are ready for a journey and just wanting to be an explorer? Please come along!
Contact any of our clergy at the Cathedral office, if you would like more information.
