LearnAnnouncements
Written By Greg Sennema

What are some of the new ways people are thinking about God and Jesus? How can the Christian faith be relevant today? This 12-session on-line exploration of the story of faith includes interviews with over 25 leading theologians, including Brian McLaren, Diana Butler Bass, Robin Meyers, Marcus Borg, Walter Brueggemann, John Dominic Crossan, Matthew Fox, and Amy-Jill Levine.
