Quest is an educational adventure for adults to learn about different religions, different denominations, different spiritual practices, new perspectives and theologies. The hope is to invite questioning, openness and growth. These classes are held every other Wednesday night at 7 p.m. via Zoom. Pastor Kaye will draw on her years of teaching World Religions at Carthage, plus invite guest speakers, to introduce the group to early Goddess religions, cults, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism and perhaps some Native American spirituality. In addition, we will discuss our own religion, Christianity, learn some Christian history. Eventually we will follow up our class time with field trips to a temple, a mosque, a synagogue, a labyrinth in Milwaukee and wherever else we come up with!
Below are the recordings of the classes and any readings, videos, etc. that will be referenced.
