The Afterlife

What lies beyond this life? Why do we worry about it?

  • March 18: Intro - What is heaven? (Katherine Kerr)

  • March 25: What does Scripture say about heaven? (Chuck Williamson)
  • April 8: Salvation - What do we really know about this promised life in Christ? (Chuck Williamson)

  • April 15:  Resurrection - How does life now prepare us for life then? (Mary Margaret Porter)

  • April 22: Hell - Where do we get our ideas of hell? What does scripture say? (Katelyn Cooke)

  • April 29: What can we learn from other religions’ beliefs on the afterlife?

This class presents rotating topics that invite exploration of Scripture and ways of living the faith personally and for the world. Teaching and discussion are attentive to the needs and interests of those who are navigating mid-life passages, but the class is open to all.
