Looking for a place to learn more about where and how God is working through Christians around the world? “Latitude & Longitude” is a Sunday morning adult class with an international focus. It studies the issues which affect God’s Church around the world and provides a venue to showcase our global ministry partners or others who will help us grow deeper in our understanding of Peachtree’s call to “carry God’s love to the world” (the “Latitude”). In addition, it celebrates the history of Christianity as seen through the work and witness of the Church as a key to better understanding who we are today (the “Longitude”).
In Fatal Embrace, author Mark Braverman shows how the Jewish quest for safety and empowerment and the Christian endeavor to atone for centuries of anti-Semitism have united to suppress the conversations needed to bring peace.
