The Sunday morning discussion-based OASIS group explores biblical and thematic topics. Join us starting on Rally Day as we begin a new 7-week study, Grace in Polarized Times. “Polarization” is a fancy word for “division,” which the Bible talks about quite a lot. For instance, Paul tells us that Christ should not be divided but rather united in one body by their love for Jesus and each other. But, wow, that’s hard when the other side is so crazy, right?! In the weeks leading up to the election, we explore why we are so polarized and grapple with the challenges of overcoming tribal instincts and living as God’s people. Facilitators will mainly draw from two books: Truth over Tribe by Patrick Keith Miller and Keith Simon, and The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt. Read along or just come for the discussion!
Adults of all ages and older youth are welcome.
Meetings: Every Sunday @ 9:00-10:00 a.m. in the Family Room (lower level) and on Zoom
