Embracing an Adult Faith: Salvation

This week's study from Embracing an Adult Faith is that golden wonder, that thing we all need...

Salvation!

 Here are the reflection questions:

1. What words, images, memories and experiences do you associate with the word salvation?

2. Sin is another problematic word for many. What is your current understanding of this word? How has that changed from earlier years?

3. What influential forces shaped the way you see God, afterlife, salvation, sin and faith today?

4. When were the times in life that you would say, in the words of Psalm 23, that you were in 'the darkest valley'? What made it possible for you to move beyond that time? If you are still in that time, in what ways do you feel accompanied?

5. What images, symbols, words, rituals and practices support you on the way?

Again, please pick a question and come Friday prepared to share your thoughts. We'll be in Walker 1-113 at 11:30 a.m. and this week I'm bringing.... a surprise!

And... the service trip to St. Joseph this weekend is cancelled but we will explore the possibility of going a weekend after school is out.

SEE YOU FRIDAY!
