Fleming Rutledge inaugurates the 2017 season of
Theology on Tap with a highly appropriate topic:
Theology on Tap with a highly appropriate topic:
“The Once and Future Season: Advent.”
Why is the Advent season so uniquely important, yet so misunderstood? Mrs. Rutledge will talk about the cultural conflict between the “holiday season” and the unique themes of Advent.
It is our delight to welcome Mrs. Rutledge to speak on this subject, which is timely and fitting for our parish, named as it is for this imminent and significant season in the church calendar.
One of the first women to be ordained to the priesthood in the Episcopal Church, Mrs. Rutledge has a book on Advent coming out next year. She is the author of many other important books, including The Crucifixion: Understanding the Death of Jesus Christ, Not Ashamed of the Gospel: Sermons from Paul’s Letter to the Romans, And God Spoke to Abraham: Preaching from the Old Testament, and The Battle for Middle-Earth: Tolkien’s Divine Design in The Lord of the Rings.
