Signs and Wonders—A Study of the Miracles of Jesus
Wednesdays at 6:30PM, Weekly
FUMC Waynesville
description
Using the work of Dr. Amy-Jill Levine, we will explore selected miracles of Jesus in their historical and theological context. For each miracle, we will discuss not only how past witnesses would have understood the events, but also how today we can draw meaning from Jesus’s words and actions.
In the words of James Howell, Senior Pastor of Myers Park UMC in Charlotte, “Amy-Jill Levine is herself a sign and wonder, a sign that reading the New Testament through Jewish eyes is not just essential but revelatory, and a wonder, as she always writes with verve, wisdom, humor and rich insight.”
This class will meet February 8th - April 5th (excluding February 22nd & March 1st)
Optional book: “Signs and Wonders: A Beginner’s Guide to the Miracles of Jesus” (Abingdon Press, 2022). You can order the book through a local bookstore, cokesbury.com, or Amazon.
