  The Retreat cost is $150 (all-inclusive) for two nights and days at the facility.

Stephen Finlan, Ph.D. (aka Finnie) is the author of six books, including Options on Atonement in Christian Thought.  His books are highly regarded and quoted by major academic theologians.  Finnie will be presenting a workshop at IC08 called “Using the Bible in Conversation w/ Christians.”  His workshop will consist of discussion of three central questions:

1. How is knowledge of the Bible useful to conversation with Christians?
2. How does the UB build upon, expand, and correct the Bible, and why does that matter?
3. What are some techniques for handling disagreements and disputes?

Finnie is a gifted author and teacher, and his depth of knowledge of both the Bible and The Urantia Book enriches our study group and Society meetings.

You have a special opportunity to hear him speak at IC08!
