Fall Learning Community: A Church Called Tov (Week 1 )

12 October 2022 @ 19:30 - 21:00

Fall Learning Community - A Church Called Tov

Details

You are invited to join the Elevation Community in a learning community that will read the book A Church Called Tov together this fall. We believe this is the perfect book for our community in this season of transition for a variety of reasons. The subtitle of this book is “Forming a Goodness Culture That Resists Abuses of Power and Promotes Healing”. As we move forward as a church, we believe it is incredibly important to have conversations about cultivating a culture of goodness that resists power abuses and promotes healing.

How will it work?

We’ll provide a reading plan for the community to read this book together. We’ll come together for five weeks starting October 12 and running through to November 9 to discuss and reflect on a few chapters.

When will it take place?

Wednesday evenings on Zoom from 7:30pm-9pm.

  • October 12 – Introduction through Chapter 2
  • October 19 – Chapters 3-5
  • October 26 – Chapters 6-8
  • November 2 – Chapters 9-11
  • November 9 – Chapter 12 and any concluding reflections on the book

 

How to get the book

You can purchase the book through any major bookstore or vendor including through Amazon.ca (~$30) or the Kindle version (~$23). Or you can put an ask in the Elevation Waterloo Community Facebook group to see if you can borrow someone else’s copy.

If you’d like to learn more about the book, check out this interview with the authors (Scot McKnight and Laura Barringer) on Danielle Strickland’s “Right Side Up” Podcast here.
