The Forum features topics such as social issues, biblical interpretation, other spiritual traditions, religion in America, meditation, Christian art, metaphysics, religious history, aging, and spiritual travel experiences. Coffee and treats are provided before the program begins. This fall the Forum will begin September 20, 2009 (10am). Click on Forum Schedule for more specfic information.  Contact person is

Sunday Morning Bible Study meets Sunday's 10:00 - 10:50 in the Lead Minister's Study.  begins Sept 20

Friends of Emerson meets the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of each month from 4:00-5:00 in the Atrium. Our next selection is The American Scholar, the Phi Beta Kappa Address delivered at Harvard in 1837. Although hailed by Oliver Wendell Holmes as “America’s Intellectual Declaration of Independence,” it went beyond nationalism. It was a call for the consciously examined life, based on the principle that human beings have access to the Divine Mind and that each of our unique individual lives can reflect that mind.  No prior reading required, no assignments, no charge.  Call or email Lucy Bell for further information 719.576.5371.

Soul Feast 

Soul Feast is studying "Living the Questions 2" this fall.  Topics from week to week include "Taking the Bible Seriously," "Thinking Theologically," "Stories of Creation," "Lives of Jesus," "Challenges Facing Progressive Christians," "Embracing Mystery," "The Myth of Redemptive Violence," "A Kingdom without Walls," "Social Justice," and many others.

We start with upscale snacks and coffee at 9:00 am each Thursday in the FCC Chapel, and discuss our topics from 9:30-11:00 am. 

We do not bring in teachers to lecture, but rather facilitators--largely within our group--to lead discussion, which is free flowing.

We welcome visitors!
