Join us at Oasis for this in-person live event. In the first century many texts were written about the life and times and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. Four of them made it into the Bible and the rest were scattered, lost, or intentionally destroyed as heresy. In 1945 a complete, intact text of the Gospel of Thomas was discovered in a cache of scrolls in Egypt. Join us as we explore this ancient window into that heady first century before the establishment of the official Church. How is the Gospel of Thomas similar and different from the synoptic gospels and John? What do those differences reveal about the tensions in the early Jesus movement? Might the Gospel of Thomas move us closer to understanding the real Jesus? In-person only. $18

A Sephardic Jew of Portuguese ancestry, Baruch Spinoza was born in Amsterdam in 1632. Often at odds with the Rabbis of his own immigrant community, Spinoza would go on to wrestle with ideas of God, meaning, and the universe in startling, influential ways. Arguing for an absolute monism, Spinoza believed that God was simply the name of the energy that binds everything together—a kind of pantheism, thus sealing his enemy status in both Jewish and Christian circles. He nevertheless persisted in taking full advantage of the liberal intellectual climate of the Netherlands to further pursue his ideas and change the course of Western religion and philosophy.

Join best-selling author Richard Louv and philosophy and religion professor Peter Bolland for a conversation about our relationship with the natural world. What does time spent in the outdoors do for us? Why do we feel that way when we are in the forest, or the desert, or anywhere away from the din and grip of industrial society? What does our longing for natural spaces tell us about our own essential natures? What insights might the world’s wisdom traditions offer to deepen our inquiry into these important questions? This event is live and in-person only--no webinar and no recording. See you there!
As we all ease back into "normalcy," thanks for your patience through these long years of pandemic distance. Nearly all events are still 100% online via Zoom, but we hope to begin offering live, in-person events beginning in 2022.
