Our monthly Dialogues offer the Ottawa region a sustained, intimate setting for engagement with some of the best that has been said or written. Come read classics like Athanasius’s On the Incarnation as well as works by Isaac Watts, C.S. Lewis, and modern writers. Our ecumenical commitment means you are sure to encounter fresh perspectives in a respectful context. So, if you have been itching for a regular place to kick up your feet, laugh, and read books alongside other Christians, look no further!

One Body, Many Personalities

Christian community is great until all the people show up. In Life Together, Bonhoeffer suggests that the disappointments, personality clashes, and shattered expectations of communal life do not negate the reality of Christian fellowship. We will explore Bonhoeffer’s claim that disillusionment with the community we imagined may be precisely what allows us to discover the community we have been given. Life Together proposes that fellowship (koinonia) rests ultimately not on our ability to construct an ideal society, but on a reality already established in Christ.
