Ventures Course in February

Dan Ulrich, Wieand Professor of New Testament Studies at Bethany Theological Seminary in Richmond, IN, will be the presenter for the next Ventures Course, 9 a.m. to noon (CST), Saturday, February 18th. Using the Gospel of Mark as his focus, he raises the question--"How can followers of Jesus bear faithful witness to God's reign in the twenty-first century?" This course will explore how the Gospel of Mark challenged its earliest audiences to be faithful through their experiences of marginality and suffering. Key passages in Mark will be explored in order to envision life-giving ministries for our own times and contexts. Registration information is available at www.mcpherson.edu/ventures
