Rev. John Dear, longtime activist, author, priest, and Nobel Prize nominee, will reflect on the nonviolence of Jesus, from his teachings in the Sermon on the Mount, to his public campaign in Jerusalem and his death and resurrection, and what this means for Christians today-that we are all called to practice nonviolence, and work for a new world without war, poverty, racism, nuclear weapons and environmental destruction. John will propose that creative nonviolence is the new hallmark of Christianity and the measure of our discipleship. Join us for a vigorous new reflection about how to follow Jesus in these difficult times. All are welcome to this assembly of worship and dialogue, in the spirit of exploration and mutual regard. There is no admission fee; a freewill offering will be received.
