THEOLOGY @ THE TAPROOM | fall study // September 01, 2012

Posted by Phil Taylor executive pastor

Our fall TATT study will focus on the works of Karl Barth, one of the most influential theologians in the last 100 years. Barth’s contributions to the church have been praised by some as “killing old liberalism”, while others just can’t stand the guy. Several years before his death in 1968, he was featured on the cover of Time magazine. How many theologians have that kind of influence on mass culture?

We’ll begin on September 17th at Brown’s Brewing Company at 6:30PM with an intro lecture on the life and times and works of Karl Barth. No reading is due for this first night and all are welcome, even if you don’t plan on sticking with the study. We’ll continue meeting on the third monday of each month. Reading assignments will average 85 pages per month.

PLEASE REGISTER HERE.

We will be reading two books in the study. First, we’ll read “Barth for Armchair Theologians” and then we’ll follow this up with a short book by Barth called “The Humanity Of God”. If you want us to order your books for you, it’s important that you register at the link above, and bring $27 cash on the first night. A reading schedule will be given out that night as well.

The intro lecture is limited to 60 people. Please register early to reserve your spot.
