First up? Sex, of course...

October 8th, 7p, Pyramid Brewing Company

The Rev. Dr. Jay Johnson
Priest, Professor, Senior Director, Academic Research & Resources, Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies at the Pacific School of Religion

“The Erotic God: Sex as Spiritual Practice”

Why is Christianity perceived as a “sex-negative” religion? Is “following the rules” the only link between God and sex? Can our experience of sexuality give us any insight into God and Christian faith? Questions like these have prompted a wide variety of approaches to religion and sexuality over the last fifty years. Jay Johnson will offer some reasons why sex and sexuality are so highly charged in religious circles and suggest some ways in which sexual intimacy can be considered a spiritual practice for Christians.
