SUMMARY:Biblical Killjoys - Christ Church Dayton Lenten Program
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Esther Brownsmith\nChrist Church\, Dayton\, will explore five “feminist killjoys” of the Hebrew Bible: biblical women whose disruptive unhappiness threatens the simple black-and-white morality of the stories around them\, for their 2025 Lenten series. Although their tales are ancient\, these five “antiheroes” can still teach us how to wrestle faithfully with God’s word. This class will be taught by Dr. Esther Brownsmith\, an assistant professor of Hebrew Bible at the University of Dayton and a Christ Episcopal Church parishioner. \nSoup supper served at 6pm\, program starts at 6:15pm \nSample the Series on Sunday\, March 16\, 9 am — Hagar the Uppity\nAs an Egyptian slave impregnated by Abraham\, Hagar’s life was not easy—particularly after Sarah accused her of being too “uppity” and drove her away to the desert. Yet even at the lowest point of her life\, the Bible preserves her voice and gives her a remarkable honor. We will use this story to reflect on how women’s voices—particularly those from the African diaspora—have spoken uncomfortable truths from the ancient world to the present. \nWednesday\, March 19\, 6:15pm — Tamar the Brazen\nMistreated by her in-laws\, the biblical Tamar concocted a bold\, scandalous plan to achieve the security and family that she dreamed of.  In the brazenness of this ancestor of Jesus\, we will find inspiration to insist on justice and act for equity\, even when it means challenging and outwitting those in power. \nWednesday\, March 26\, 6:15pm — Miriam the Proud\nAs the sister of Abraham and Aaron\, Miriam the prophetess had a position of honor. But when she dared to speak against those in authority\, she was punished and silenced. Together\, we will uncover Miriam’s story and legacy\, reflecting together on the endurance of women’s proud prophetic voices. \nWednesday\, April 2\, 6:15pm — Michal the Offended\nMichal\, the daughter of King Saul and wife of King David\, spoke up against David—and paid the price for it. Within the Bible’s careful curation of David’s image\, Michal’s offended unhappiness preserves an alternative view. We will sit with Michal\, listening to her stories\, and discuss our responses when our own “killjoy” impulses resist a simplistic reading of God’s word. \nWednesday\, April 9\, 6:15pm — Jezebel the Harlot\nEveryone thinks they know the story of Queen Jezebel: a seductive idolater who challenged God’s prophets and led Israel into sin. But how much of that story is history\, and how much is later propaganda? In this final week\, we will discuss the legacies of history’s feminist killjoys; we’ll study Scripture “at a slant” to locate traces of our foremothers\, and we’ll share strategies to read the Bible faithfully while honoring those traces. \n

SUMMARY:Lenten Quiet Day
DESCRIPTION:Join the Diocese of Southern Ohio and Procter Center for a day spent on retreat. \nThis day-retreat will be centered on the theme of “A Commonplace Lent\,” as offered by Episcopal Relief & Development and Procter’s Co-Executive Director\, Jerusalem Greer. \nDuring this retreat\, Jerusalem will lead participants in exploring two uses of the word “common” through the lens of Lent. The first is the sense that we come together to celebrate “all that we are and all that we have in common” — prayer\, worship\, grace\, love\, community\, service\, and so much more. The second understanding of common is a reflection on the ordinary\, everyday nature of these communal gifts – the kind of of gifts we find in the soil\, the sun\, in water\, and around the table. \nInspired by the wisdom of desert mothers and fathers\, monastics\, and other spiritual leaders\, this Quiet Day for all ages will be infused with prayer\, time for group and personal reflection\, and time spent listening to the wisdom of creation. \nSaturday\, April 12\n10 to 3 pm\, lunch is included. The cost to participate in the Lenten Quiet Day is $40/person. The registration deadline is April 9\, 2025. Click here to register. \nQuestions about this event? Please contact Jerusalem Greer\, co-executive director of Procter Center\, at jgreer@proctercenter.org. \n
