It ain't necessarily so...
This event is being advertised through the London Chaplains' network, it looks really interesting. I've been reading a bit of James Alison myself lately and have found his writing a really useful tool for approaching the idea of atonement. Looks like the kind of thing some mooters might be interested in?
“It ain’t necessarily so” - Re-imagining Salvation for ‘Recovering Christians’, using Girardian perspectives and based on the work of James Alison. Saturday 21st July 2007 11am – 4pm
for those who want to re-imagine salvation; for anyone who needs, wants or is on the brink of discovering a new way of believing which remains utterly scriptural and based in catholic theology; and would like to be introduced to this way of 'seeing and inhabiting'
This interactive workshop is designed for those who are wanting to get into Girardian thinking and the work of James Alison. Using diagrams as a skeleton for our thinking we will explore the dynamic and meaning of God in Creation, Incarnation, Redemption and Atonement, Resurrection and Forgiveness.
Presented by David Cherry - Anglican Chaplain to the University of Westminster; Parish Priest of St Cyprian’s, Clarence Gate; and a tutor on the 2nd year of Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius and the Art of Spiritual Direction at the London Centre for Spirituality.
· Cost: £15 for this day-workshop
· Registration from 10.30am
· Please bring a packed lunch.
· Tea & coffee will be provided.
