God in Recovery: An Examination of the God of the Old Testament and the Relationship between Religion, Righteousness, Violence and God 
Many who read the Hebrew Scriptures are troubled by stories of violence, where God instructs Moses, Joshua, David and others to destroy villages and cities and kill women and children.  Is this the will of God?  What are Christians and others to make of these terrifying texts?  Professors Walter Brueggemann, Carolyn Sharp and Pete Enns will address some of the Bible's most challenging stories.

You are invited to Evensong Sunday, April 29
Please join us for Choral Evensong on this Sunday, April 29, at 4:30pm in the Church. Anthems based on Psalm texts will be offered alongside service music by the St. Thomas' Choir and Choristers. Evensong is the Anglican evolution of the ancient offices of Compline and Vespers, holding roots still today in monastic communities. We celebrate in song, prayer, and Scripture the closing of the Day and pray that Christ's light will sustain us through the night and into the coming day. The choirs will be joined by Tom Sheehan, Associate Organist at St. Mark's, Locust Street on the organ. Don't miss out on this beautiful service of music and prayer and invite a friend!
