Christians in Conversation
On Thursdays, at 6:00 PM we will continue our class on Zoom with Confronting the Controversies by Adam Hamilton. We read during the week, then watch a video and discuss weekly.
The goals of this book are stated as:
To help Christians learn how to do Christian ethics; that is, how to think through complex moral issues applying both biblical teaching and theological thinking to these concerns.
To provide a model for how to dialogue about moral issues and maintain respect for persons on both sides of the divide.
To teach both Christians and non-Christians how the Christian faith relates to critical issues in contemporary society.
To evangelize, encourage discipleship, offer prophetic challenges and provide care.
Many of us don’t really take time to think about what we believe until we have a personal experience – sometimes a crisis – that forces us to weigh the consequences of a difficult decision. Often we do not know how to dialogue on important issues.
