Book cover: Sabbath as ResistanceLenten Adult Forum Series: Sabbath as Resistance. The final session of our Lenten series will meet on Sunday, April 9, following the 11 o’clock service.

Drawing on the title of the book by Walter Bruggeman, Sabbath as Resistance: Saying No to the Culture of Now, we will explore the concept of the Sabbath as a path to bring about justice, peace, and mercy in the world. We will read a small section of the book together each Sunday and use it as a foundation for discussion. It is not necessary to purchase the book but you are welcome to bring your own copy. The series is led by Shana Kaplanov, our Seminarian.
