"Postcards from Babylon" Book Study

River West Christian Church

An 11 week online book study on religion, power and the calling of the cross.

Please register for the first date. Join us for a riveting book study on ZOOM as we discuss Brian Zhand&#x27;s &quot;Postcards from Babylon.&quot; There will be 10 sessions on Mondays (Oct 4-Dec 6th 8pm-9:15pm)followed by the documentary viewing.Here&#x27;s a bit about the book.The original gospel proclamation that the Lord of the nations was a crucified Galilean raised from the dead and that salvation was found in vowing allegiance to Jesus of Nazareth unleashed a shock wave that turned the Roman Empire upside down. Early Christianity was subversive and dangerous—dangerous for Christians and a threat to the keepers of the old order. Most of all Christianity was countercultural. But what about contemporary North American Christianity? Is it the countercultural way of Jesus or merely a religious endorsement of Americanism? In his provocative book, Postcards From Babylon, Brian Zahnd challenges the reader to see and embrace a daring Jesus-centered Christianity that can again turn the world upside down.&quot;We&#x27;ll finish our time watching the documentary based on this book.Books can be purchased at the church office or on Kindle.
