REFORMED SPIRITUALITY AND THE NATURAL WORLD: TALKS ON DESIRE- Sundays September 20th – October 11th at 11:00 am.   A Key question in Christian spirituality is, ” What do we do with our desire?” The question is very practial in nature, and yet it opens out to broad theological questions about human nature in its created goodness and in its sinful distortions.  The Reformed tradion has been known to take a dim view of desire, and yet a careful reading of some of the key theologians in the tradition suggests that, although desire is a proble, it is also the solution.  In thes talks, we consider the ways John Calvin, Jonathan Edwards, and the English-speaking Pritan tradition understood the natural world as kind of invitation to a trasformed relationship with our natural desires.  In nature, we see a marvelous and often severe beauty, and we are invited beyond our customary obsessions and preoccupations toward a wider appreciation of God’s glory.  We will meet in the South Parlor, or for a Zoom link contact Tami in the church office.
