cutting edge

Did you know that our Cutting Edge group has met almost every month from September to June for several years?

It is almost impossible to characterize our discussions except that they have covered a wide range of writings and sometimes guests. Topics have included:

- conflicts between science and religion
- overlap between science and psychology
- how we experience God
- spirituality
- the new age movement
- the economics of agricultural subsidies
- philosophy of education
- teachings of various religious leaders
- and many others.

Seldom is a specific subject carried over beyond one month. The majority of participants are not members of Community Mennonite Church of Stouffville, and we have had some wonderful opportunities to share perspectives. We are grateful to Gord Alton, the previous pastor at CMCS, for taking the initiative to create a space for this type of conversation.

And now, even as we break for the summer of 2007, we look forward to taking time to be with our friends again, in September. You are welcome to join us for these discussions, if you like!
