”ECLIPSING THE EMPIRE'' CLASS: This week's topic is "Vocation". Luke refuses to classify Paul as a true apostle of Christ, although Paul clearly considers that his calling and station. Is Luke too stingy, or is Paul simply arrogant? And what difference does it make to us today? Join us to discover Paul's theory of The Kingdom of God, its challenge to Roman (and modern) imperialism, and how to understand Paul and his radical relevance for today. The class will meet from 9:45 to 10:45 in Grant Hall. All are welcome. For more information, email Jay Sowell
