The Civil Warriors Round Table will hold its last meeting of 2018 at 7PM on Wednesday, December 12th, at Weiler’s Deli in West Hills, CA. Chris Knabenshue of Crespi will present on “The Bible and Slavery.”
A New Understanding of Biblical and Christian Slavery - often when we think of slavery we think of the African slavery in the United States, the enslavement of the Jewish people and others via the Nazis, and other horrible cases of slavery. The Bible has even been used to defend such atrocities! On closer look into the Scriptures we can find how slavery was transformed, both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament into something surprisingly not what we would expect! Come to this presentation and never look at that word in the scriptures the same way again!
Chris Knabenshue has been teaching and evangelizing the Catholic faith since the Jubilee 2000. He uses his seminary background and continued study to explain the faith and specializes in making difficult concepts tangible and easy to understand for both youth and adult audiences. He has a BA in Philosophy and Theology from St. John's Seminary College (Boston, MA), as well as an MA in Biblical Catechesis from John Paul the Great Catholic University (San Diego, CA). He has spoken internationally on the Crucifixion and the Shroud of Turin, and nationally on many other faith-based topics. He has worked as the Youth Minister at Our Lady of Grace (Encino, CA) and as a theology teacher and theology department chair at Crespi Carmelite High School (Encino, CA). He is now the Campus Minister at Crespi High School. More information can be found at: www.thornintheflesh.org and www.crucifixionshroud.com
