Don't miss our June event at Monk's Cellar featuring Bro. Thomas Aquinas Picket, O.P. as we dive into the theology of love, friendship, and all that good stuff.
Recent trends in the Catholic Church have emphasized the need for a personal relationship with God. However, there is not an equal amount of effort put into explaining exactly what this means in a coherent, theological manner. In order to do this, we should turn to St. Thomas Aquinas and his treatment on friendship and love. At the same time sublime and practical, St. Thomas's teaching bridges our need for sound theology and the heartfelt living out of the Gospel.
Br. Thomas Aquinas Pickett, O.P. will present the core concepts of St. Thomas pertaining to friendship and love, as applied to the contemporary call for a personal relationship with God.
As always, anybody is welcome to attend, Catholic or not.
Drinks start at 7. Come early for a good seat. Thanks to our friends at Monk's Cellar for welcoming us and providing great deals on great food.
