Wednesdays from September 4 - November 20

Not Meeting Wednesday, September, 18

Join Rev. Dr. Bob Fuller for the Zbinden Center Lay Academy Class on "Holy Heretics: The Disciples of the Reformation" this Fall 2024.

The Reformation of the 16th century was a transformative period for the church in Europe, coinciding with the emergence of modern science, politics, commerce, education, and philosophy. During this time, while scientists like Galileo were challenging established knowledge through their study of the natural world, theologians such as John Wycliffe, Jan Hus, Martin Luther, and John Calvin were questioning the dogma and authority of the papacy through their deep study of the Bible. Despite their efforts to renew the church, they were labeled as heretics by the very institution they aimed to reform.

All are welcome to join us on Wednesday evenings to explore this revolutionary era and the legacy of these remarkable thinkers.
