Inward, Downward, Upward: The Reconciling Art of the Psalms, presentation by Christine Perrin
March 17, 4:30 p.m., Recital Hall
The psalms invite us to realize all the stations of our wide human experience and emotion. From desolation that desires death, to delighting in the God-presence in the natural world, to punishing our enemies, to deep abandonment—there is room in the language given to us by God, tradition, and King David (and others) for these deeply intuitional responses. Understanding the significance of their structure, movement, and of their givenness to us could really change our lives. When I read them closely for the first time at age twelve, I was amazed that these words, felt so strongly by me, had also been felt by others far away from me in time and place. What does it mean that this is the hymnbook of the church and of not only Christianity but Judaism and Islam? What does it mean to read and receive them as Christians? What is their secret structure and pattern of reconciliation that could actually accompany us in our Christian pilgrimage? Sponsored by the Honors Program. All are welcome.
Three Views on the Atonement
March 19, 4:30 p.m., Frey 110
At the heart of the Christian faith is the belief that we can be reconciled to God and have the hope of glory because of Jesus Christ. However, not all Christians now or through church history have been in total agreement about the precise way in which this reconciliation between God and humans operates. To shed light on different historic Christian views of the atonement and to help us pursue the university’s mission of maturing Christian faith, a panel of area ministers will speak on Thursday, March 19 at 4:30 p.m. in Alexander Auditorium [Frey 110] about how they view the atonement.
Panelists are: Pastor Jeremy Hetrick, Lead Pastor at Redeeming Grace Church; Fr. Timothy Hojnicki, Rector at Holy Apostles Orthodox Church; and Pastor Hank Johnson (’04), Senior Pastor Harrisburg BIC Church. This event is sponsored by the Honors Program. All are welcome.
