And the people did ask for Theologizers podcasts and lo the lazy group leader didst oblige and provide and there was much rejoicing.

Well, thanks to all who have participated and gotten us this far – I’ve had a whole lot of fun so and am looking forward to more. We had our last meeting before Christmas last night and it was great. Our next meeting will be at 7:30 on Tuesday, January 5, and we’ll be reading to the end of chapter 5 (“Good News for the Pagans”) in What St. Paul Really Said, by N. T. Wright. Have a merry Christmas everyone and we’ll see you in the new year!

The Urban Bridge Theologizers group had a great first meeting last night and are excited about diving in. The group is diverse, with men and women, younger folk, older folk, and folk in between. We include lawyers, an artist, a linguist, a facilitator, and a even that most rare breed, a professional theologian! We also represent a diversity of church backgrounds including United, Lutheran, Anglican, Baptist, and Pentecostal.

We’d love to involve as many people ‘outside’ our group as possible, and to that end we’ll be posting regularly on the Urban Bridge blog with updates on our meetings and musings on our material. You can also join our open Facebook group to get in on our discussions, get a look at the material we’re using, and join in.

You’re also welcome to just drop-in whenever you can make it. We’ll be setting out readings and resources in advance so you can look at what we’ll be discussing on any given day, even if you weren’t there the week before.

For now, meetings will be held every other Tuesday, from 7:30 to 9:30 (at the latest), mostly at the Drennan’s abode, but occasionally moving to alternate locations. Drop Scott a line (s.drennan@gmail.com) or give us a call (780-760-5123) if you want to get involved!

Our next meeting is Tuesday, September 29, at 7:30 at Scott and Lindsay Drennan’s place.

The Urban Bridge theology study group will be meeting this coming Tuesday, September 15, at 7:00 p.m. at Scott & Lindsay Drennan’s home for their first meeting and kick-off! The plan is to finalize a meeting schedule, work out an approach for selecting and tackling material, and pick our first topic or book. All those who are interested in joining should come to throw in their two cents.

Please RSVP in advance so appropriate quantities of tea and vittles can be provided!
