"We need our lives back. It's time to reclaim the gifts of imperfection–the courage to be real, the compassion we need to love ourselves and others, and the connection that gives true purpose and meaning to life. These are the gifts that bring love, laughter, gratitude, empathy and joy into our lives." -Brene Brown, "I Thought It Was Just Me (but it isn't)"
In the Connections class, participants will gather together with others in both large- and small-group settings to practice empathy and awareness and discover what it means to create, embrace and inspire change in ourselves and in the world–change that is real and life-giving and transformative. Click here to register.
Please note: this is not a session-by-session drop-in class. Participants are asked to sign up for the full six-week course and attend as many sessions as possible.

Plymouth Reads The Gospel of Mark in 2012
Previous generations of scholars often overlooked Mark, dismissing it as crude, repetitive and even poorly written. But new research is rediscovering Mark as a subtle and sophisticated literary work. It protrays Jesus as elusive, mysterious, and strangely compelling -- a character that refuses to stay confined to the pages of the story. Readers of Mark often find themselves unsettled and summoned to do something surprising.
To enrich your experience of worship, and get better acquainted with this transformational text, join us for one of two opportunities to go deeper into the Gospel of Mark.
