  • Tuesday, October 6 – Theology on Tap. Faith in Times of Trouble.  We all face those moments when the events of life can overwhelm us – grief, loss, transition, uncertainty.  These are often times when our faith waivers.  Tonight Fr. Terry Dumas will share his reflections and wisdom on this topic.
  • Monday, October 12 – Theology on Tap. The Mysteries of Underground Rome. Are the remains of St. Peter really directly below the center of the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica?  And what about St. Paul?  Was he really found this summer?  Rome, the Eternal City, holds many mysteries, many of which are found well below the familiar churches, ruins, and fountains.  Fr. Jim will give us this unique opportunity to discover more of the fascinating story of what is below Rome.
  • Monday, October 19 – Theology on Tap. Women in the Church.  Women have always been deeply involved in the Church.  The discussion arises when we begin to look at the specific roles.  When have women pushed the Church to see new ways to live the faith? What is the role of women in the Church in the past, present, & future.  Nancy Joseph from the Diocese of Lansing’s office of Lay Ecclesial Ministry will be speaking.
  • Tuesday, October 27 – Theology on Tap. Deliverance: Faith and the Supernatural. Halloween is just around the corner.  All the scary movies fill the airwaves and cable channels.  Many talk of demons, hauntings, and what happens after this life.  Tonight we will look at what our faith has to say about all these things.

All Theology on Taps take place at Arbor Brewing Co (114. E. Washington) in downtown Ann Arbor.  We begin the night at 7 pm and conclude by 9:00 pm.
