About The Event
A study with Pastor Gene for young people in grades 6-12. Meet in room 104.
Jesus was Jewish. How do we know this? Why is it important? What does it mean for those of us who call ourselves his followers?
Pastor Gene McAfee will lead two sessions with our young people to investigate the Jewishness of Jesus and why that matters for Christians. We will begin with the evidence from the Bible and trace the historical paths that led to what one scholar has called “the reluctant parting” of Christianity from Judaism. We’ll learn about the “Judaisms” of Jesus’ day and some of the practices associated with them. By understanding Jesus’ faith better, we may come to understand our own faith better as well. As Philip said to Nathanael, “Come and see!” (John 1:46)
