The EDGE meets Friday mornings from 10:15 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. David Stabenfeldt is the current discussion leader. We are currently reading, Do I Stay Christian? by Brian McLaren. We are always looking for more folks who would be interested in becoming part of the group.
EDGE grew out of a Bible study group that formed in the Village of Oak Creek some 20 years ago. The name EDGE was created when the Bible study group decided to change direction and started to read religious related books and discuss them rather than focus strictly on Bible reading. EDGE is an acronym for Ecumenical, Diverse, Gutsy, and Educational. When the group was formed, we had attendees from at least four different churches and that is where the E and D for the first half of EDGE originated. Post-COVID, we decided to meet via Zoom, and a Zoom link is also set up at the church for those who don’t have Internet access or just would prefer to be part of this group at the church. Our book selection process is quite relaxed. Individuals are encouraged to suggest books that they have read or know about, members have a couple of weeks to look up those books, and we come together and decide what the next several books will be. The group decides each meeting how much of the book they would like to read for the next session. We take Fridays off that are during holiday weeks.
