SUMMARY:Mini-Course: Made Flesh
DESCRIPTION:Are you struggling to find grounding amidst the pressures and demands of life? We find ourselves in unprecedented times facing rapidly changing climate on our earth\, deeply divisive political climate\, and an onslaught of media cycles. All on top of our day-to-day lives\, work commitments\, and relationships. It can lead to waves of overwhelm and numbing.  \nThis 6-part series will invite participants into embodied practice (somatics) that support returning to the wisdom of our body for the sake of our own healing and the healing of the world.

SUMMARY:Mini-Course: Tenderness and Refuge: Ministry with and for Young Adults
DESCRIPTION:“Tenderness and Refuge: Ministry with and for Young Adults” focuses on six prevailing themes from years of research with young adults yearning for faith community. These themes include a desire for  \n\ninclusive communities\,  \nrelatable leadership\,  \nan emphasis on relationships\,  \nan emphasis on spirituality\, and  \nan emphasis on social justice\,  \nalongside an ambivalence towards the Christian label. \n\nThis mini-course is beneficial for church groups\, youth ministers\, and anyone invested in young adults. It features Garrett-Evangelical alums\, friends\, scholars\, and practitioners. It highlights their approach\, rooted in deep listening to young adults’ experiences through ethnographic research.   \nEach module includes a recorded video conversation\, reflection questions\, and next steps for engagement.  \nYou will earn a downloadable certificate of completion once you have finished all the modules.  \nFunded by a generous grant from the Lilly Endowment\, Inc. and produced by the Young Adult Initiative at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary.

SUMMARY:Black Theology for a World in Crisis
DESCRIPTION:“Black theology has always been clear about what it feels like to be in a body that is seen as problematic. What does it mean to be treated as someone who does not belong\, someone whose presence makes other people feel uncomfortable\, angry\, or disturbed?” Dr. Anthony Reddie is the professor of Black theology and director of the Centre for Black Theology at the University of Oxford. Britain’s preeminent Black theologian\, he is the author of many texts including\, recently\, Introducing James H. Cone: A Personal Exploration and Theologising Brexit: A Liberationist and Postcolonial Critique. \nOn March 19\, 4:00 p.m. CST\, Dr. Reddie will deliver the 3rd Annual James H. Cone and Emilie M. Townes lecture at Garrett’s Chapel of the Unnamed Faithful\, and streamed free online. In his address\, Dr. Reddie will reflect on how Black theology can diagnose the evils of Christian nationalism\, and the ways that migrants are treated in the United States and throughout the world. A crucial word for a world in crisis\, we invite you to join us as we reflect on the work to which God calls us. \nClick here to read an interview with Dr. Reddie\, for more information about how Drs. Cone and Townes influenced him as a scholar\, and what he plans to discuss in his lecture.
