We invite you to bring your friends who may need healing for themselves\, people they know\, or for the needs of the world. Our biblical witness invites us to bring our weary spirits to God and ask for healing. \n\n\n\nSchedule: \n\n\n\n\nSaturday\, October 12 – 5pm\, Great Hall\n\n\n\nSunday\, October 13 – 9am\, Sanctuary\n\n\n\nSunday\, October 13 – 9:30am\, Great Hall\n\n\n\nSunday\, October 13 – 10:30am\, Sanctuary\n\n\n\nSaturday\, April 5 – 5pm\, Great Hall\n\n\n\nSunday\, April 6 – 9am\, Sanctuary\n\n\n\nSunday\, April 6 – 9:30am\, Great Hall\n\n\n\nSunday\, April 6 – 10:30am\, Sanctuary\n\n\n\nWednesday\, August 13 – 6:30pm\, Sanctuary

SAMUEL GIERECurrent political polarization compounded by the nation’s journey to the 2024 presidential election is pinching people of faith on both sides of the divide. With attention to manifestations of Christian Nationalism\, Dr. Giere will talk about how faith in Christ forms us to navigate our life together as communities of diverse political commitments. \n\n\n\nOur premiere adult education ministry includes inspiring weekly LIFE Talks and small group connections through LIFE Groups. The goal of LIFEU is to inspire you to “Live In Faith Everyday” (LIFE) rooted in the words of Jesus from John 10:10: “I came that they may have LIFE\, and have it abundantly.” This year we seek to “Flourish Together\,” wrestling with timely and relevant issues with those who know what it takes to flourish together in our relationships and communities.LIFE Talks Dates & Topics:October 2\, 9\, 16\, 23 & 30 • Civility in Difficult TimesNovember 6\, 13 & 20 • Nourish to FlourishJanuary 8\, 15\, 22 & 29 • Christianity in ContextFebruary 5\, 12\, 19 & 26 • Relationships Matter \n\n\n\nREV. SAMUEL GIERE is Professor of Homiletics & Biblical Interpretation at Wartburg Theological Seminary\, teaching courses in biblical theology\, interpretation\, and imagination. He previously served as a pastor and is a sought after preacher\, teacher\, and presenter. He earned his MDiv at Wartburg and a PhD in Old Testament at the University of St. Andrew’s in Scotland. His work builds upon his most recent book\, Freedom and Imagination: Trusting Christ in an Age of Bad Faith.
