Bright Eyes and Happy Faces!

Emmanuel has always had a healthy component of young families among its members, and, interestingly, they are comprised of both urban and suburban dwellers.  Emmanuel's vestry made a renewed commitment to programming for it's young members and their parents by bringing in an Assistant Rector, The Rev. Diane Tomlinson, whose special focus is Christian Formation and programming for children and young people; and by committing resources (thanks to several generous donations) to the renovation of the spaces used for programs and activities for children and youth.

Terry Eagleton on the God Debate

Terry Eagleton's book Reason, Faith, and Revolution: Reflections on the God Debate, offers a devasting critique of recent works by Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens (whom he refers to collectively as "Ditchkins").  It is brilliant, provocative, and very, very funny.  It is based on his 2008 Terry Lectures delivered at Yale.  You can view these lectures on the link below.
