“The Foolish Wisdom of God” Series

Here you can listen to our Wednesdays Night Dinner Series from the fall of 2011: The Foolish Wisdom of God

“The Foolish Wisdom of God: Paradoxical Insights for Everyday Living,” taught by Paul Walker. Each talk will look at a different aspect of how the Gospel turns our lives upside down (in a good way) and transforms hurt into hope, from instances of forgiveness and love, to control and guilt, to work and family life, etc. We plan to draw on all sorts of multimedia for assistance (e.g. film clips, songs, literature) in the hopes that it will be a rich time of fellowship, fun, and spiritual edification.

  • Collect for Purity

    Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer, page 355)

The Word

For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

The Prayer

Almighty God, who through your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ overcame death and opened to us the gate of everlasting life: Grant that we, who celebrate with joy the day of the Lord's resurrection, may be raised from the death of sin by your life-giving Spirit; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Book of Common Prayer, p. 222)
