Signs and Wonders (Sunday School)

December 20, 2023 by Andrew Burd-Harris 2 Comments

In Signs and Wonders: A Beginner’s Guide to the Miracles of Jesus, Amy-Jill Levine explores selected miracles of Jesus in historical and theological context. For each miracle, she discusses not only how past witnesses would have understood the events, but also how today’s readers can draw meaning from Jesus’s words and actions.[1]

Participants should pick up a copy of Amy-Jill Levine Signs and Wonders. If you would like the church to order a copy of the book for you, please contact the church office. The cost of the book is $13. If the cost of the book will be a problem, please talk to Pastor Andrew. If you would like to order through the church, please let us know by Sunday, December 24th.
