Eternal Life? Life After Death As A Medical, Theological, And Philosophical Question
/“Our soul doesn’t stop at our skin,” once noted theologian Karl Rahner. While manybelieve this to be true, others struggle to hold onto the Christian idea of eternal life while living in a modern world in which many different beliefs about life after death exist.
What does a Christian believe about death, resurrection, heaven and hell in the 21st century? This Sunday morning class, taught by Rev. Grace, will explore these questions from medical, theological, and philosophical viewpoints. The class will meet in the Parish Hall at 9:30 am on Sunday mornings, and is
open to all who are interested!
