Each session will begin with a 20-25 minute video introduction to the topic by New Testament scholar Marcus Borg, followed by a small group conversation.

A sculptural interpretation of the story of the Good Samaritan. Said Good Samaritan is depicted kneeling over the man from Jericho, who grips his side in pain. A donkey stands in the background behind the man from Jericho, and a jug sits in the background behind the Good Samaritan. The sculpture appears to be affixed to a building near where the two sides of the roof meet. Image via Pixabay.
