That means getting into the messy\, human history behind the text\, who wrote it\, when\, and why\, and what that history has to say about how we hold it today. A lot of that work is just understanding what’s actually in the book: the different kinds of writing\, the centuries it spans\, the arguments it contains with itself. \nSix weeks\, small group\, open to whatever questions you bring in the door.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][nectar_btn size=”jumbo” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Extra-Color-3″ solid_text_color_override=”#FFFFFF” icon_family=”default_arrow” text=”Sign Up” url=”https://hillsidemedford.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/3868137″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Before we head out\, Rev. Tom will offer a brief introduction to the work: what we’re doing\, why it matters\, and how to go about it with care. Then we’ll walk a loop through the neighborhood\, finishing up by 1:15pm. \nNo experience needed. Just bring good shoes\, a compassionate heart\, and a willingness to show up. \n[/vc_column_text][nectar_btn size=”jumbo” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Extra-Color-3″ solid_text_color_override=”#FFFFFF” icon_family=”default_arrow” text=”Sign Up to Volunteer” url=”https://hillsidemedford.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/3868452″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve Candlelight Service
