The June, 2009, meeting of the Sidewalk Theology Society will occur tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. (!!! sorry for the late notice) at Delaney's pub (next to the Celtic Tavern, which is at 18th & Blake in lower downtown Denver). We will revisit the topic of our identity in Christ, focusing on John 15:1-12 and Colossians 3:1-6. We want to emphasize the practical implications of this topic. Bring a bible for easy reference to these passages.
The patron saint for the evening is John Donne (1572-1631). Poet, preacher, and dean of St. Paul's, London, he wrote
No man is an island. entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
