Is Christian Nationalism really a thing?

$55

with Richard Putz

Calendar Jan 9, 2024 at 1 pm, runs for 6 weeks

In this six-session study guide, we will explore an ideology known as "Christian Nationalism." We have encountered the term in the press, on social media platforms, and in casual conversations in the workplace, school, neighborhood, or church. “Christian Nationalism” is an ideology that threatens the Christian faith and our pluralistic democracy, and it thus needs to be addressed by all of us in the United States. In this study session, the goal is to help you discuss with those with whom you interact about the dangers of Christian nationalism.

The Music of Jena-Claude Gianadda

$55

with Jerry Gloster, M.A.

Calendar Jan 9, 2024 at 2 pm, runs for 6 weeks

Jean-Claude Gianadda is a French monk and singer/songwriter. He is very popular in France. His music is extremely light and inspiring. It is classed as pop in France, even though many of his songs are Christian in scope—but not all. This class is open to all regardless of expertise in French or even none. Each week the teacher will present the class with copies of the lyrics from 2 -3 songs, both in the original French as well as in English translation. After discussing the songs (in English) the class will then listen to or watch a video of the performance of each song.

Watercolor Workshop

$55

with Dorothy McGovern, M.A.

Calendar Jan 11, 2024 at 9 am, runs for 6 weeks

Each week we'll paint a picture. Before class you'll receive a sketch, a reference photo, and a list of paint colors and equipment (brushes, masking fluid, etc.). In class we'll practice a new technique and then move on to painting the picture. Each week, expect something different; we'll mix it up and do loose paintings and realistic paintings. We'll also do serene and then stormy landscapes and add some people and/or animals along the way. Each painter is encouraged to make the painting their own by adding their own personality to each painting. 

Note: Class will meet January 25, February 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29.
