Connections Café will begin studying “Christianity’s Family Tree: What Other Christians Believe And Why”, By Adam Hamilton, April 22 – June 24, 9:50 AM, Second Hall. Why do Orthodox Christians use icons in worship? What is the “baptism in the Holy Spirit” that Pentecostals speak about? Why do Roman Catholics focus on the Eucharist in worship? What do Lutherans teach us about salvation? What do Presbyterians teach us about God’s power? How can Episcopalians deepen our prayer life? What can Baptists teach us about living for Christ? We will begin answering these questions and more as we learn of the history, theology, and distinctive emphases of eight different Christian denominations and faith traditions. For each tradition, we’ll hear (via DVD) from a clergy member of that tradition and look at Scriptures that have shaped that faith. Join us as we nurture our own faith by learning more about our Christian sisters and brothers.
