We’ll see though that these topics offer very practical guidance for every day life. This week’s topic is  “Doctrine of Atonement”.

It’s really about how we overcome “sin” and feel that at-one-ment with God.

What is “sin”? What did Christ Jesus do to rid the world of sin? What’s our role?

The 3rd section of the lesson begins with Philippians 2:5:

Let this mind by in you, which was also in Christ Jesus

How do we adopt this Mind of Christ?

One of the last citation in the lesson is comprised of the last three Tenets of Christian Science, it may be very worthwhile for us to review these. But do bring your own questions, looking forward to seeing you Sunday!
