Adult Study

Adult Study takes place on Tuesday evenings, 6 - 7 pm & Wednesday mornings, 8 - 9 am
All programs are designed to work well for those who follow over time and for anyone to jump in at any time.

Adult Study programs will resume in January 2019:

Tuesday evenings
Henri Nouwen - Spiritual Direction
Begins Tuesday - January 15 - 6:00 - 7:00 p.m.   
18 are now signed up and books have been ordered! 

Others may still join our study,  
yet are encouraged to purchase the books on their own. 
 
Three books edited by dear friends of Pastor John and Sarah White
(Michael J. Christensen and Rebecca Laird)
including

Winter/Spring 2019
Spiritual Direction: Wisdom for the Long Walk of Faith
by Henri J. M. Nouwen
Bill Moyers says: "Read this book and you will understand why
I chose Henri Nouwen as a companion on my own spiritual journey."
 
Fall 2019
Spiritual Formation: Following the Movements of the Spirit
by Henri J. M. Nouwen
James Martin says: "Henri Nouwen was one of the great spiritual masters of the
modern age. His beloved writings have helped millions understand that no matter
where we are, God can meet us there. Read this brand-new compilation of his writings
and conferences, and let Henri Nouwen accompany you-with his trademark wisdom,
acuity, common sense, erudition and, most of all, compassion-and help you encounter
God more fully in your daily life."
 
Winter/Spring 2020
Discernment: Reading the Signs of Daily Life
by Henri J. M. Nouwen
Phyllis Tickle says: "An absolute gift to mind and soul. Christensen and Laird have
seamlessly and thematically woven a luminous tapestry of both Nouwen's published
and previously unpublished work on discernment. The result is an even richer and
more accessible Nouwen than most of us have ever seen before."
 
Fall 2020
A retreat led by Michael Christensen
 
You may join the 2019 - 2020 Tuesday evening Henri Nouwen study at any time.  
Books are being ordered for those who signed up by November 1, yet you may still
e-mail me, by clicking  Pastor John if you'd like to purchase books on your own and join us.    

This will be one of the most special and thought provoking adult education programs I have ever led.

To make your experience most meaningful, I encourage you to find and purchase a personal journal
to use throughout our three book study and retreat, 2019 - 2020.
 
Wednesday mornings
 8:00 a.m. - Eaton Music Room
Our Every Word of the Bible study continues.  You may join us at any time. 

 
Blessings, Peace and with deep gratitude for your participation,
Pastor John
