Join us as we study, discuss and inquire into the most purchased, least read, most controversial and least understood book in the English language: The Holy Bible! 

We use the language of inclusion to discuss the bible: allegory. For us, people, places, and events in the Bible represent ideas and states of consciousness within each individual. We can read and study the Bible as a means to see the evolution of consciousness in the individual as well as humankind. Thus, the Bible is transformed to a vehicle for peace, rather than a weapon of fear and division.  We believe the Bible offers nourishment for the soul, and we use its lessons as reminders of our divine origin and purpose.

A brief historical perspective on the writers and their cultural values will also be included in this study. 

This is an open-enrollment drop-in class, so all are welcome to join the group at any time.

Because The Bible is an anthology of the combined writings of many authors spanning hundreds of years, we will not be reading it in any particular linear sequence, other than the order determined by the group. If you have a Bible, bring it but it is not required. The instructor will prepare a Learning Guide for each week's lesson, based on the selections determined by the class participants.
