Rehearsing Scripture

Rev. Dr. Anna Carter Florence

All adult and youth classes will join in Wood Fellowship Hall for a lesson on "reading the verbs in Scripture".

Columbia Theological Seminary professor, Dr. Anna Carter Florence, will share her method of reading Scripture that enlivens the text in a new way.

Pen Peery says, "Anna Carter Florence was absolutely one of the best professors I had at Columbia Theological Seminary for no other reason than she helped me learn how to love the Bible on a deeper level. Anna’s passion is in making the Bible come alive to those who hear it, study it, or preach it. She is profound and accessible. I am thrilled she is going to bring her gifts and passion to ignite us this weekend."
