BLOOMINGTON HOLINESS LECTURES
2023-09-30 09:00 - 17:00 | Sanctuary, 700 W. Howe St, Bloomington, IN, 47403, United States
BLOOMINGTON HOLINESS LECTURES
“Christian Ethics” with Special Guest: Dr. Timothy R. Gaines
Join us from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm at Zion Community Church of the Nazarene for this special lecture. We will break for lunch (on your own) at 12:00 pm. The Lecture will resume promptly at 2:00 pm.
How can Christians make decisions in a morally complex world? What makes ethics particularly Christian? One of the primary aims of Christian ethics is to discover how we can convert our work toward God’s purposes so that God can make our work holy.
Dr. Gaines illuminates this topic as something the people of God can use to reorient our lives toward the way of Jesus and the mission of God in the world. Reason alone will not convert our work to the way of Jesus. Christians are called to action in God’s created world, which is why reasoning engages practice. Join us as we take a look at how to think and act morally in ways that are faithfully Christian and holy in response to the leading of God.
Questions or to let us know you will be joining us 812.332.2461.
We look forward to seeing you there!
