Come join Kathy & Scott on Friday, February 27 at 12:15PM. We will meet at the front steps of the Downtown YMCA. We will head down towards Wascana Park and walk part way around the lake.  We will walk approximately 45-60 minutes.  We will discuss Rachel Held Evans book, Faith Unraveled, (See http://rachelheldevans.com/faith-unraveled/">http://rachelheldevans.com/faith-unraveled/). There is a hard copy of the book available at the church. (If it is really cold, we will still meet at the Y, and decide upon a place nearby to have lunch.)

From Rachel Held Evans’ website...
Eighty years after the Scopes Monkey Trial made a spectacle of Christian fundamentalism and brought national attention to her hometown, Rachel Held Evans faced a trial of her own when she began to have doubts about her faith. Growing up in a culture obsessed with apologetics, Evans asks questions she never thought she would ask. She learns that in order for her faith to survive in a postmodern context, it must adapt to change and evolve. Using as an illustration her own spiritual journey from certainty, through doubt, to faith, Evans adds a unique perspective to the ongoing dialogue about postmodernism and the church that has so captivated the Christian community in recent years. In a changing cultural environment where new ideas threaten the safety and security of the faith, Evolving in Monkey Town is a fearlessly honest story of survival.
