Huntley church hosts six-week series on faith

Beginning on Sunday, Feb. 9, the six-week adult education series on the “human vessels of faith” will be presented by Pastor Roy Olson at Shepherd of the Prairie Lutheran Church in Huntley.

The sessions will take place at 10:20 a.m. Sundays through March 16, at the church, 10805 Main St.

“As professing Christians we share a common faith, yet each of us carries it in a unique way in the vessel of our personality,” Pastor Olson said. “Our faith is shaped by our genetic inheritance, our physical and psychological development, and our life experiences. Our goal during these sessions will be to better understand the uniqueness of each of our vessels.”

The upcoming sessions include six different models to give greater insight into everyone’s individual uniqueness:

• Feb. 9 — Five World Views of Walter Wink

• Feb. 16 — Nine Stages of Human Development of Erik Erikson

• Feb. 23 — Seven Stages of Faith Development of James Fowler

• March 2 — Four Temperaments/Four Spiritualities based on the Myers-Briggs Temperament Indicator

• March 9 — Four Spiritualities and the Spirituality Wheel of Corinne Ware

• March 16 — Four Stages of Faith Development of John Westerhoff
