SUMMARY:Reading on Faiths: When Christians Were Jews
DESCRIPTION:A Book Group Exploring the Diversity of Religion\n\n\n\n\nReadings on Faiths Around the World is a book group that reads and discusses books covering the vast diversity of world faiths. Of course\, the standard seven world religions will be included but we will also explore less well-known religious/spiritual groups. The only prerequisite needed for this group is a desire to learn more about the world’s religious traditions. \nOur next book for my learning circle is When Christians Were Jews\, The First Generation by Paula Fredriksen. Fredriksen\, a long time professor of scripture at Boston University\, presents a deep yet accessible study of the first generation of “Christians.” She demonstrates how a group of charismatic\, apocalyptic Jewish missionaries\, preparing their world for the realization of God’s promises for Israel\, end up inaugurating a movement that would grow into the gentile church. \n\nLEARN MORE & ENROLL

SUMMARY:Process Pop-Up: The Death of Supernaturalism
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now\n  \n\n\n\n\n\nIn his newest book\, The Death of Supernaturalism: The Case for Process Naturalism\, Chad Bahl offers a bold theological manifesto that critiques the metaphysical assumptions of supernatural theism. He demonstrates the incompatibility between the supernaturalistic worldview and the scientific worldview\, and maintains that supernaturalism perpetuates rather than solves the problems of theodicy and divine hiddenness.  \nAs a solution\, Bahl argues for a process naturalist view of God—one which sees God as relational\, persuasive and embedded within the natural world. Bahl is an emerging voice in the process theology community. In this Process Pop-Up\, we’ll explore the core ideas in this text. \n\n\nAbout the Speaker\n  \nChad Bahl\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChad Bahl\, DThM is a graduate of Northwind Theological Seminary and specializes in the study of Open and Relational Theology. Bahl is the author of God Unbound: An Evangelical Reconsiders Tradition in Search of Truth\, the author/editor of Deconstructing Hell: Open and Relational Responses to the Doctrine of Eternal Conscious Torment\, Mornings with Schleiermacher: A Devotional Inspired by the Father of Modern Theology\, and\, most recently\, The Death of Supernaturalism: The Case for Process Naturalism. \n\n\n \n\n\n\nTo reserve your seat and receive the Zoom information\, click the Going button and enter your name and email. \n\n\nDisclaimer: This event is open to the public and will be recorded. If you choose to enable your camera or participate in any discussions\, your voice and likeness will be recorded\, and may be posted on the Process & Faith and/or Center for Process Studies websites and social media\, or included in our public-facing materials.

SUMMARY:Buddhist Process Explorations
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion Group About the Exploring\, Sharing\, and Practice of Buddhist Process-Relational Thought \n\n\n\nAt face value\, the Buddha’s Dharma and Whitehead’s Process Philosophy seem to characterize reality in very different ways\, and for different reasons. The Buddha taught that reality as we typically experience it is an impermanent\, selfless and dissatisfying process of cyclic becoming continuously powered by compulsive attachment and aversion grounded in delusion. The Buddha prescribed various methods we could deploy in order to go beyond this painful and immiserated condition\, methods which involve thorough analysis and deconstruction of our habituated and self-limiting assumptions about ourselves and the world as well as means of cultivating more purified states of awareness and embodiment so that we can awaken to the way things really are and unleash our core potential. \nWhitehead elaborated a systematic philosophical scheme\, replete with foundational metaphysical categories\, that reconstructs reality as a cumulative process of concrescence whereby many diverse feelings creatively synthesize into a novel experience\, aiming towards satisfaction and lured to completion through divine persuasion. For Whitehead\, many of the issues in philosophy and society at large could be traced to various fallacious conceptions concerning nature\, language\, and experience which he sought to rectify with his panexperiential\, process-relational Philosophy of Organism. \n  \nLEARN MORE & ENROLL
