Our book this month is The Liberation of Christmas by Richard A. Horsley.
Current biblical scholarship tends to treat the nativity narratives as having little historical basis and to see in them illustrations of the particular theologies of Matthew and Luke. Nonbiblical scholarship sees in these narratives only an adaptation of traditional folklore themes relating to the birth of the hero. This leaves the ordinary Christian in a vacuum that the mass media and other commercial interests are only too anxious to fill. 'Liberating Christmas' shows that, regardless of whether the nativity narratives are rooted in actual historical situations, they do portray a particular network of social-political relationships.
Join us on Sunday, June 5th at 7pm. Our book circle will meet in person this month. For more information about the book or the group, please contact the office at 360/424-3628 or pastorchristopher@mvfumc.org.
Join us on Sundays from 9-10am for in-person Sunday School classes for children 3-18 years old (masks are optional). For more information, please contact the church office at 360/424-3628.
