Wednesdays Online & Sundays at UMC Red Bank

-On Sunday mornings, starting 1/22 in the Lounge here at UMC Red Bank, we will begin Joan Chittister’s video series on Spirituality, Self, and Society. Sister Joan Chittister, a member of the Order of Saint Benedictine Sisters of Erie, PA, has been a highly influential religious and social leader and an advocate for peace, women’s rights, human rights, and church renewal for over 40 years. The video series addresses the challenges of living a purposeful life defined by compassion and care for others. In that spirit of unity, Chittister invites an interfaith panel to join her in broadening the conversation.
-On Wednesday evenings, starting 1/25, Ken Glossbrenner will be leading us in a study of Climate Church, Climate World - How people of faith must work for change by Jim Antal, United Church of Christ. Climate Church, Climate World contends that climate change is the greatest moral challenge humanity has ever faced. Hunger, refugees, poverty, inequality, deadly viruses, war—climate change multiplies all forms of global social injustice. Environmental advocate, Rev. Jim Antal, calls on the church to meet this moral challenge: to embrace a new vocation so that future generations might live in harmony with God’s creation. After illuminating how human beings are responsible for the dangers our planet now faces, Antal proposes how people of faith can embrace new approaches to worship, preaching, witnessing, and other spiritual practices that honor creation and cultivate hope.
