tnevdA: a reversal of the traditional 25 day countdown to Christmas

Join us on Monday, November 24th, 7-9pm for tnevdA - featuring special guest Peter Rollins!!

"Life must be understood backwards; but... it must be lived forward." Soren Kierkegaard

Think of the greatest possible holiday moment, the Christmas of your dreams.  Now walk back a day into the lack of that moment.  Take another step back into postponed pleasure, into that place of wishing, hoping, longing.  Take step after step... day after day.... backward. Back into loss, into hopelessness, into the empty.  

Step backward twenty-five long days and sit, and wait, and watch.  Become like a wild and free animal in the meadow staring alone long and deep.  Breathe, be aware...

We have the honor of welcoming theologian Peter Rollins, and local artists as we enter a time of tnevdA - a reversal of the traditional 25 day countdown to Christmas.  We are hosting this event with Atlanta Emergent Cohort.
