Most professionals are required to continuously update their education or become obsolete, out of date, out of touch with the dynamic changes in their field.Continuing education is also a must for Christians.
I began my faith journey as a rigid fundamentalist which served me well growing up in the South side of post Al Capone Chicago. Years later, after 25 years of academic preparation for ministry I still had much to learn.
Then, in 1999 in the 1st Congregational Church UCC in Ellsworth Maine I was asked to moderate a new series, “Living the Questions” (LtQ). What a wake-up call that was! Top religious scholars and Biblical research combined to produce a review of the latest discoveries relating to faith issues.
This “recovering fundamentalist” is grateful for my continuing education offered by LtQ. I now have more questions than answers but I am thankful for the questions.
LtQ-2 is the next edition of this exciting update and it will be offered at Bath church this Fall!
Further information will be offered in our church’s subsequent publications.(The Link, Splash, Sunday Bulletins). Read on and plan to enroll in this mind blowing course as part of your continuing education. (CEU credits will be offered ?)
