Fall 2023 Bible Study
Justice for Women Tapestry Thread
Led by the Rev. Kelly Bayer Derrick
Four Sessions: November 6, 13, & 27; December 4
7PM – 8:15PM on Zoom
“Is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob truly the God of Hagar, Sarah, Keturah, Rebekah, Leah, Rachel, Bilhah, and Zilpah?” The Rev. Dr. Wilda Gafney asks this question in her book Womanist Midrash: A Reintroduction to the Women of the Torah and the Throne.
Pastor Kelly invites you to explore that question as we gather round the table for holy conversation together with the matriarchs of the Hebrew Bible. As we engage the stories of these amazing mothers, we will purposefully center the lived experiences of women in scripture as we also learn more about the narratives of the people of Israel.
Registration has closed.
Sessions will be recorded and published together by December 12.
