Bible "Detox"

Reckoning with and resisting the misuse of the Bible to promote and justify violence and oppression.

This year, CLBSJ continues our Lenten Bible Detox practice with a mini-series that melds our format from last year with our format from previous years. We will gather for two teaching sessions on Tuesday April 1 and Tuesday April 8, featuring Kate Common and Jeremy Williams. Then we will re-convene on Saturday, April 12 for a participatory session in which we will go deeper into the scriptures and themes discussed through dialogue and contemplation.

People of all faiths and backgrounds are warmly invited to participate in this ongoing experiment! Registration is required. Scroll down for links to read more and register. An option to make a sliding scale donation option is included in the registration process. All are welcome to attend regardless of ability to donate.
