Summary for April 11, 2021

Dear Folks -

After a three week hiatus Ordinary Life resumed this week. We continued our deep dive into the Lord’s Prayer. The phrase we are up to is the very familiar “forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.” We introduced Diarmuid O’Murchu’s newest book, “Doing Theology in an Evolutionary Way” and Nick Page’s book, “A Nearly Infallible History of Christianity.” This class begins an exploration into forgiveness, inclusion, redemption and other related matters. One of the things contained in the time is a refutation of what I call the “most successful bad theology ever written.” Going forward we must do theology in a context of a post-colonial way of thinking, a trust and faith in the wisdom of science and by embracing the reality of evolution. We called the time -

Finding Freedom by Being Bound Together

That is a very brief summary of Ordinary Life for this week.

Also, be aware that we have instituted a weekly podcast. It is called “In Between.” You can access this through the Ordinary Life website.
