Who do you say I am?
October 15, 2007
This week we’re having Transmission on a Tuesday. Yup, you heard me right, it’s on TUESDAY. The reason for this is that a guest from UK, John Bell, is in New York this week and wanted to come but wasn’t free on Wednesday. He’s also a member of the Iona Community and one of the most influential church musicians alive, so if you want to ask him about either topic, please come.
We’ll be meeting at Bowie’s place - email us if you need directions. Our ritual, led by j. Snodgrass and me, will be focusing on the relationship between “Jesus the Nazarene” and “Christ the Son of God.”. Is there a difference between being a Christian and being a Jesus-follower? What kind of baggage do these terms carry, both for people in the church traditions and those outside them? What effect do these labels and ideas have on our lives and on our relationships?
As usual, we won’t be providing any answers, but I’m sure we’ll have some great discussion. Oh and, of course, we’ll also have great food, so come out to party and pray this Tuesday night, 7pm, at Bowie’s place. See you then!
