Theology On Tap: Living the questions
January 29 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Rainer Maria Rilke wrote in 1903 in Letters to a Young Poet:
“…I would like to beg you dear Sir, as well as I can, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”

We carry into the new year unresolved questions- the ones that haunt us, that appear to be complicated, tangled messes and seemingly impossible to answer, that drive us, that intrigue us. What if we were to hold space for the questions, allowing them to be a curious lens through which we view the world?
Theology On Tap is a safe space to pose the hard questions over a cold beer and examine the questions through the lens of spiritual, historical, scientific perspective as well as each others worldview.
