STRENGTH IN WEAKNESS
Peculiar Treasures: A Biblical Who’s Who of Grace
Eight Sessions: May 6–June 24, 4:30 PM
Led by the Rector
In the sermon on the mount, Jesus taught, “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back.” (Luke 6.37–38)
This seminar will study grace, and in the early sessions we’ll focus on people we read about in the Book of Judges. What is grace? Grace is the disproportion between what’s needed and what’s given. It’s there in Jesus’ own words, ‘Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over.” It’s not as if God exists in order to fill a carefully defined gap in our needs; we put in the request and God signs it off and gives it back. No. It’s more like open the slightest crack to the grace of God and in it all comes. And I suppose that’s part of what gets St Paul going in some of the letters where he suddenly sort of spots the sheer exuberance and extravagance of what he’s talking about, and can’t reign himself in.
We’ll meet on Thursdays at 4:30 PM. The way we’ll meet is up to you. I’ll be in the courtyard of St Stephen’s. You can either meet with me there or join the seminar via the virtual link found on the church website and the Tidings newsletter.
For the first session, on May 6, please read the first four chapters of the Book of Judges and come prepared with your findings and questions.
For more information, please contact Elizabeth Gravely.
