Sundays, every other week, 2 - 4 pm, starting Jan. 17
We are re-starting the Tea & Ink creative writing group, and writers of all abilities & interests are wanted!  This group seeks simply to explore the intersection of Faith and Creative Writing … Whether you’re a complete amateur or a semi-pro; a lover of fiction, non-fiction, stories, poems, or essays; you’re welcome to explore with us why we write and how God can be glorified in writing. We’ll be meeting at the Dickinson home every other Sunday afternoon, 2-4 pm, starting January 17, with essay & story discussions, free writing exercises, and workshopping of our own writing.  Contact Markus Dickinson (md7@indiana.edu) for more information.

Practical Theology Study Group (1st meeting)

9:00 amto10:00 am

With a million books and podcasts available within one click, it is easy to know what everybody else is thinking or saying about God. But, it’s not often that we take time to study and articulate our personal belief about the character of God or about the journey of becoming more like Him. 
Starting the week of January 17th, we’ll take 8 weeks to look at some “practical theology” in a group environment.  The format will be much less of “Rob Bell says…” or “John Piper thinks…” but much more, “I have been studying and thinking and I’ve decided…”  This is a great next step for those who are discovering their faith for the first time as well as those who would like to refresh their faith in some practical ways.
If you are interested or have questions, email Aaron Van Ruler at: aaron.vanruler@gmail.com.  Time and location will be determined by interest.
