Reading Group | Jesus the Great Philosopher

Thursday, 6/3/21 at 7:00pm

About the Event

Adult MinistrySummer

Why are motivational speakers, self-help books, or popular guides like Oprah or Jordan Peterson so very popular? They are offering a practical philosophy of life that promises help and hope for navigating everyday life with greater wisdom and success, and they often appeal to ancient philosophies for the roots of their advice.

Join us as Pastor Mike Farley leads us through Jonathan Pennington's "Jesus the Great Philosopher: Rediscovering the Wisdom Needed for the Good Life." This book shows that Jesus offers us a better practical philosophy of life by answering these big life questions in a more compelling and coherent way: what it means to be human, how to be happy, how to order our emotions, and how we should conduct our relationships. We'll examine Jesus’ teaching and life as a whole-life philosophy, one that is more true, good, and beautiful than any ancient or modern alternatives.

Note: This group will meet in person (in accordance with St. Louis County guidelines) and online via Zoom.
