SUMMARY:John Cobb & Friends Gathering: Bruce Epperly
DESCRIPTION:Topic: The Bible in Process Perspective: Learning from Stories \n\n\n\nPresenters: Bruce Epperly \n\n\n\nJoin our conversation with Dr. Bruce Epperly\, seminary teacher\, pastor\, lectionary commentator\, and prolific author of over sixty process-themed books. On his personal website he says\, “Process theology is an adventure of ideas\,” and “The Bible is an adventure book.” See his current Adventurous Lectionary blogs for Patheos\, or his archive of lectionary commentaries for Process & Faith. What follows is further information Dr. Epperly has shared with us. \n\n\n\nBruce Epperly served over forty years as a university chaplain\, congregational pastor\, seminary administrator\, and university and seminary professor. Prior to concluding his full-time ministry at South Congregational Church\, UCC\, Barnstable\, Massachusetts in 2021\, Bruce served in various administrative and academic roles at Lancaster Theological Seminary\, Wesley Theological Seminary\, Claremont School of Theology\, and Georgetown University. Bruce is the author of over seventy books in theology\, spirituality\, healing and wholeness\, scripture\, and clergy wellbeing\, including The Elephant is Running: Process and Open and Relational Theology and Religious Pluralism; The Jubilee Years: Embracing Clergy Retirement; A Center in a Cyclone: Twenty-first Century Clergy Selfcare;  Francis of Assisi: From Privilege to Activism; Mystics in Action: 12 Saints for Today; Prophetic Healing: Howard Thurman’s Vision of Contemplative Activism; 101 Soul Seeds for Grandparents Working for a Better World; and 101 Soul Seeds for a Joyful Retirement. His latest books are Taking a Walk with Whitehead: Meditations on Process Theology and Process Theology and the Revival We Need. He currently is working on manuscripts related to Teilhard and Whitehead and the importance of progressive/process-relational Christianity in saving the soul of the nation and planet. \n\n\n\n In “retirement\,” Bruce describes his life as spacious\, meaningful\, and busy enough. His days are filled with writing\, preparing for classes and talks\, walking\, watching British mysteries\, and spending time with his wife Kath and his grandchildren who live in the neighborhood. He wakes up eager at 4:30 a.m. for today’s holy adventure\, which always includes an afternoon nap!  On occasion\, he even does part-time ministry for congregations\, focusing on theological reflection\, preaching\, teaching\, and reviving congregation’s spirits. \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInformation about how to access each gathering is made available via email.
