Sunday Forum Series Continues
Sunday, January 17 and 24 at 9:00 a.m.
This three-part series led by Jessica Locheed explores the role that art played at two very crucial moments of Christianity.
January 17
The second class jumps ahead to the 16th Century and considers the impact of the Reformation on art in the Reformation churches of the North in Germany as well as the impact of iconoclasm. In the North we will focus on humanistic trends of Luther’s friend Lucas Cranach as well as Albrecht Dürer.
January 24
Week three will address the response by the Catholic Church which produced what is known as Counter-Reformation art. We will be looking at artists like Caravaggio, Velasquez and Bernini. We will also discuss the notion of the Inquisition and some of the strict regulations that were imposed on artists in light of the Counter-Reformation.
If you would like the link to the meeting please contact us.
Tuesday, January 19, 6:00 p.m. via Zoom
At the start of this year, The Blue Mosque/The Dialogue Institute and Christ the King members and friends invite you to join us for a night of fellowship and dialogue to discover wisdom for the new year. As we study parallel texts from the Bible and the Qur’an, we listen faithfully for the living voice of God guiding us to deeper appreciation and greater awareness of our commonalities as children of Abraham. All are welcomed to participate. “Bring your own dinner” if you’d like (dates or otherwise). To participate, please email Cheryl Gaspard and she will send the zoom link and passcode, as well as the appointed texts for conversation.
Freed by faith, life in love: A three Sunday Study of Martin Luther’s Freedom of a Christian (1520)Sunday, December 20 at 9:00 a.m.
Faith and Love on Social Media
On the 500th Anniversary of Freedom of a Christian’s publication, join Intern Sergio Rodriguez for an in-depth study of Freedom of a Christian during Adult Forum in December. How may we be freed for our neighbor in the digital space? How does Freedom of a Christian inform our witness and ministry in the virtual space? These and more questions will be discussed during the study.
If you missed either of the previous sessions with Intern Sergio, you can still hear what he had to share. Send an email to ctk@ctkelc.org to get the link to the video from last week as a way to prepare for this Sunday.
