SUMMARY:Spirit on Tap: The Afterlife in the Hebrew-Greek Scriptures - Calvary UCC\, Reading
DESCRIPTION:With Dr. Harry L. Serio \nJudaism and Christianity are syncretistic religions that\, in their formative stages\, were influenced by surrounding cultures\, particularly those of Sumer\, Egypt\, Persia and Greece. The development and evolution of Biblical concepts of the Afterlife present a blending of various thoughts and philosophies. Our understanding of the Hereafter is dependent ipon the revelation of God to many persons in many cultures\, ages\, and religious expressions\, and this revelation is a continuing and evolving process. As Pilgrim leader John Robinson said\, “God hath more truth and light to break forth from his Holy Word. \nSpirit on Tap’s purpose is to encourage theological discussion\, explore alternative views\, and stimulate dialouge around issues of faith\, spirituality\, and social justice. There is no charge\, and all are welcome. Spirit on Tap is supported by your generous donations. \n

SUMMARY:Theology with a Twist: Mainline Protestant Music & Our Nation’s Shifting Religious & Sociopolitical Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday May 5th\, 2026 7:00 pm\nKutztown Tavern\, 272 W Main St Kutztown \nJoin Dr. Deborah Justice\, author of “(White)Washing Our Sins Away: American Mainline Churches\, Music\, Power\, and Diversity”\, for a discussion of how your worship music options reflect and shape how you relate to the divine and fellow humans. How do our musical choices in worship reflect our values? How do these choices shape our values? Everything from the type of musical instruments we use to employing hymnals vs projected lyrics creates a worship culture. My research has isolated three areas impacted by musical choices in worship: the sacred\, the sonic\, and the social. \nDr. Justice is an ethnomusicologist who studied and researched at Wesleyan University\, Indiana University\, the Yale Institute of Sacred Music\, and Syracuse University. Dr. Justice’s career shifted to university concert management\, beginning at Cornell University and moving to Kutztown’s concert series last year. She spends most of her time running around after her young son and two cats. \nThis will be our last Theology with a Twist for the season. We will begin our next season on Tuesday October 6

SUMMARY:Mercersburg Convocation: "Mercersburg in Glass and Stone"
DESCRIPTION:Christian worship spaces offer distinctive theological proclamations\, not only through the depictions of biblical characters and saints\, but also through the use of color\, form\, and mass. Different theologies correlate with different artistic styles. We will learn more about how to “read and hear” the glass\, stone\, bricks\, and textures of our churches\, with insights from historical examples and the Mercersburg tradition. Workshops will generate suggestions for enhancing congregational celebration and individual devotion. \nRegister here: https://keystoneconference.regfox.com/mercersburg-convocation-2026
