In February, we begin a six-week study of Pop Culture and Faith. We begin the conversation on February 16, with Victor Hugo’s epic story of Les Misérables.
"...Whether you’ve read the novel, seen the Broadway musical, heard its soundtrack, or seen the several screen adaptations, you already know the power in the story.  In the six-week study, The Grace of Les Misérables author and pastor Matt Rawle dives into six ideals found in the story— grace, justice, poverty, revolution, love, and hope—each represented by a character in Hugo’s story. Rawle brings us to the intersection of Church and Pop Culture by drawing parallels between the iconic story and musical and our Christian calling, inspiring us to both understand our faith and live it out in the world.”

Tentative schedule:
    February 16, 2020 "Grace Well Received: The Story of Jean Valjean"
    March 15, 2020 "When Grace and Justice Collide: The Story of Javert"
    April 5, 2020 "The Poor Are Always With You: The Story of Fantine"
