On-Site and Online Seminary Open Course: The Hidden Garden—An Easter Exploration of the Kingdom of God in our Midst
“Amidst the struggles and uncertainties of our time, the joy and life of Easter remain quietly present, like a garden hidden within the world’s wilderness. This course invites us to awaken to the reality of this hidden Easter garden, exploring how the Kingdom of God takes root even in places of loss, change, and renewal.”

Advent Webinar Part 2
We are pleased to be able to bring back our annual Advent offering by Rev. Patrick Kennedy. This year’s theme is “The Seed of the Woman.” Patrick will lead us in contemplating one of Christianity’s most profound and mysterious images: the Woman clothed with the sun from the Book of Revelation (Rev 12:1). We will trace this archetypal figure back to its roots in the depths of the human story, examining the connection between John’s apocalyptic vision and the first promise of redemption found in the so-called “proto-gospel” of Genesis (Gen 3:15). Through this two part exploration, Patrick will guide participants in discovering how these ancient scriptural images speak to the mystery of the incarnation of the divine in and through the Community of Christians.
Registration closes December 19th. To register, click here.
