Sun, 12 July 2009  Mary Cochran brought us a very interesting lesson today. She has been studying a book entitled "The Lost Gospel: The Book of Q and Christian Origins" by Burton L. Mack. It's an intriguing study of the life and times of Jesus, and the times before and after. Mary opened with a brief discussion of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and who the authors were. Then Mary went into the political history of the area north and south of Galilee during about the 100 years before Jesus's birth. Mary could have gone on for hours, but she definitly has us all thinking about the history. I know I'll be reading more about the Gospel of Q! We are blessed again with our music played by Chris and Caleb. And an extra special treat with a song sung by Caleb! And today we celebrated the 16th birthday of the Unity Church of Ames.
