Think Again

This last year has been a cataclysm for the familiar way of doing church.

But the early Jesus movement--especially as recorded in the Book of Acts--thrived in a time of immense change and uncertainty. One could argue most of the New Testament is an explosion of new reflection among a religious community on how to "think again" about their faith: the core of what God has always called them to do, how to continue without the old temple model, how to enter a broader vision of God's work with different people groups they'd always avoided.

Some of you are weary. Trying to prop up, or maintain, old models of what a Presbyterian church looked like for past generations, is not the call of Christ.

This VERGE in October, we are taking this moment in Northwest Coast Presbytery's history seriously: how can we "think again" about who God in Christ has called us to be in our neighborhoods?

We have invited five speakers to guide us through the hard--and exciting--questions Christians are facing in America today. If there was ever a time to come to VERGE, and to bring as many of your congregants as you can, this Fall is it.
