When: every Wednesday from 8-9 pm (Eastern time)

Pastor Nathan leads this study and sharing time every Wednesday night. We start with a brief check in, then we reflect and share insights about readings from the Bible and associated teachings from Swedenborg. We conclude with prayer. It is a refreshing opportunity to gather and benefit from a brief time of concentrated reflection and sharing. We come away from the time together spiritually nourished and ready to continue our week.
Twice a month on select Thursday nights from 8-9 pm ET via Zoom. See below for details.

How: We begin each meeting with a brief check in, then discuss a scheduled set of readings, highlighting brief quotations of special interest or insights that come up on reflection.
What: This year we are reading the first volume of Swedenborg's magnum opus, "Secrets of Heaven" also known by the Latin name, "Arcana Coelestia." This volume gives an in-depth, verse-by-verse exposition of the inner meaning of the first nine chapters of the Biblical book of Genesis. It provides foundational information for understanding the dynamics of our spiritual lives individually and our relationships with the Lord and each other.
How to get your copy of this volume: There are various online ways of reading this book or via a pdf. One simple way way is New Christian Bible Study, which has four translations. The Swedenborg Foundation website offers a free download.
