Cathedral Commons—Finding Portals into God’s Story
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2026, 6:45–8:15 P.M., in person in Bloedel Hall or online via Zoom.
Finding Portals into God’s Story—The Bible and Why We Read It (Especially) Today
Facilitated by Dean Thomason — All are welcome, even if you aren’t participating in the Contours of the Christian Life process
“In Scripture, God has uttered for us, not the last word but the first—a word designed to set us off on pilgrimage, in pursuit of that life that God has willed for us to have.” (Wm. Countryman). As the opening foray into our Contours of the Christian Life series, Dean Thomason will offer some insights into prevailing themes, trajectories, and grounding theology found in our Scriptures, while those gathered reflect together on our questions: Why do we read these ancient books still? Through what lenses of interpretation do we read them? What do they have to say to us in our time? What can we learn from Scripture about who God is and who we are as God’s people? All are welcome to join, either in Bloedel or on Zoom.
Program is free; optional community dinner at 6 p.m. ($8/adult; $25/family max.)
