Christ & Saint Stephen’s offers an Adult Forum on Sunday mornings at 9:30, lasting an hour. The time is spent in learning, theological reflection, and building Christian community. You are welcome to come for any session of interest to you and when your schedule allows.

Luke 24:32, describing the conversation between two men and Jesus on the road to Emmaus, says, “Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?”

For Lent, we will return to our own “Emmaus Walk.” On the first Sunday of Lent (February 18), Father Aaron will give us guidelines on how to read and respond to a Biblical text. For the next four Sundays, we will read the passages of scripture for that Sunday’s service and react ourselves in open discussion.

This will not be a “Bible Study” forum. Nor will it require a deep background in the Bible. Nor will there be “right” or “wrong” answers. Many ancient people encountered the Lord. The Bible relates how they reacted to those encounters. We will read what they have left us and react to it ourselves, just like the two men on the road to Emmaus.
