What were the early Protestants actually protesting?  The answer is a little more complicated than you might think.  The mighty empire of Rome may have fallen, but the church in Rome continued on, and the resultant political, educational and moral issues that arose during the Roman church’s height of power became hard to ignore for the early reformers.  We’ll be discussing the rise of Rome this Sunday at 9:15am at New Minas Baptist Church in room B5, and we need your input.  Don’t worry if you miss some weeks – we want you there as often as you can make it!

What does it mean to be a “Protestant?” Where did it come from?  Does it have any relevance today?  Starting Sunday, Jan 10 at 9:15am we’re going to take a look at the history, theology and relevance of the Protestant Reformation.  We’re also going to watch a couple awesome movies, ask some tough questions, but ultimately the reason we study these things is so that you can come to your own informed opinion on the issues.  So, if you’re ready to dig in, meet us at New Minas Baptist Church at 9:15am (usually don’t start until 9:30ish), in the first classroom in the “common room” (where all the books are).  Don’t worry if you’re late, or if you can’t make it every Sunday, we want you there!  The classes are so much more awesome when there’s some fresh minds to bring new points of view to the discussion.
