God is still speaking,

The Heart of Christianity Book Discussion Group

What does it truly mean to be a Christian today?  Is yours a guilt-driven faith? Does your faith influence how you live, seven days a week?  Where’s the joy?  Do you have the spiritual strength you’re seeking to make positive changes in your life?  Join the Heart of Christianity book group at First Parish of Westwood and explore all these questions and more. 

 First Parish Church of Westwood extends an invitation to all to read and discuss Marcus Borg’s thought-provoking book, The Heart of Christianity, at a ten-week discussion group, led by Rev. Dr. Peter Lovett, Bob Gracia and Donna Bertazzoni.  The book, which shows how to live passionately as Christians in today’s world by practicing the vital elements of Christian faith, will serve as a basis for lively and interesting discussion, as well as a tool for self-reflection.  During Lent, Rev. Lovett’s weekly sermons at the 10 AM worship service will further explore related concepts. All are invited and welcome to attend both the book group and worship services.

 The group will meet on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 9 PM, beginning March 8th, in the Parish Hall, located at 340 Clapboardtree Street in Westwood. Child care is available.  Books ($11) are available through the Church Office.  For more information or to register, please call 781.326.5344.
