Get Ready to Get Ready: Advent Prep Series

October 20, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm

$40

Five weekly Zoom presentations, Wednesdays 12:00–12:45 p.m. CST, Oct. 20–Nov. 17, live & recorded. Register on the Damascus Project website

Don’t let this Holy Season of preparation sneak up on you! Get ready to get ready for Jesus’ birth with our Advent lunchtime lecture series!

This year, be prepared to help your church prepare for the birth of Christ!

Our goal for this series is to provide preachers and faith formation leaders with fresh perspectives on this year’s Advent texts (Year C of the Revised Common Lectionary). Over the lunchtime hour, we will connect you with a wide range of voices, offering scripture commentary rooted in their particular approach and background. Develop ideas for sermons, worship, and faith formation to enrich your congregation’s experience of Advent, and connect with colleagues doing the same prep!

$40 for the series gets you:

  • Access to 5 live conversations (Weds. 12:00–12:45 p.m. CST) with 5 different interpretive voices;

  • access to records of these conversations (video and transcript);

  • access to an online cohort of learners for sharing resources, engaging in discussion, asking questions.

We are pleased to welcome the following scripture commentators:

October 20/Advent 1 texts: Justin Sabia-Tannis

October 27/Advent 2 texts: Karl Kuhn

November 3/Advent 3 texts: Rachael Keefe

November 10/Advent 4 texts: Shannon Kearns

November 17/Christmas Eve texts: Carolyn Pressler & Alika Galloway
