Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
From slavery to the treatment of women, from rules of war to the destruction of the Amalekites, we will confront the moral questions involved in sections of Deuteronomy. How were these issues understood in the past? Do contemporary values force us to rethink some of these earlier approaches?
Thursdays 11:00am - 12:00pm ET
8 Zoom Sessions
December 5, 12, 19; January 2, 9, 16, 23, 30
Classes can be purchased individually or as a bundle.
