About this event

Join us journey through the entire Bible together in the beautiful Sage Chapel, and snag a free lunch !

The Bible is a masterpiece of world literature and of immense historical significance. We welcome all to join regardless of religious affiliations.

This multi-level experience will allow you to slow down and absorb these fascinating and complex texts without pressure or expectation.

What is the value of the Public Reading of Scripture?

As we listen to the text being read aloud, we are automatically forced slow down and only read at the pace of the reader.

Reading scripture aloud in community is an ancient practice, before books were widely distributed (or easily replicated) the main way these texts were shared was as they were read aloud in group settings.

Reading through the whole Bible offers an experience like no other- no skipping over the uncomfortable or focusing on your favorite verses, parables, or stories.

Every Tuesday ! We’ll be here every week this semester, and we can’t wait for you to join us!
