Exploring Liberal Christianity, July Meeting - 07/21/2008
7:00 – 9:00 P.M. The topic for July is the sermon by Skip Earl from last summer on “Peter, Paul, and Mary: The Founders of Christianity,” Part I “Peter vs. Paul.” The historical Christian tradition owes much to both Peter and Paul in setting markers or paths within broader Christianity. To what extent did each exemplify, further, or betray the primitive “Christianity” of Jesus? What of value might we take from the precepts of each, and what might we set aside?
