What's Next?

We will be pushing on into and through the "New Testament" for the next meeting . . .  I encourage you to read that section, and also Borg's section on the "Old" Testament if you haven't done that yet.   The "New" is based on the "Old" and so it's important to have an idea of the major stories and themes of the Hebrew Scriptures if we are to grapple with Christianity well.


When we finish the Borg book . . . what next?  Here's a book just out that strikes my fancy:  see what you think!  Krasny, who seems to have lots of good credentials, is neither in the new atheism camp nor the believing camp . . .  but tries to understand both in his own spiritual journey.  You can see the Table of Contents, the Index (quite extensive), and read the first chapter at Amazon.

























Another possibility:  Anarchy and Christianity, by Jacques Ellul.  Recommended by Mick:   
















A book recommended by Brian:  God and Empire: Jesus Against Rome then and Now.  This expands what Borg said talking about God and Caesar.
