Rumi Forum Scriptural Reasoning: Hope

Scriptural Reasoning (SR) is a practice where Christians, Jews, and Muslims study each other’s sacred texts. SR participants meet once a month to read short passages from their respective scriptures on a certain topic. Facilitated by a study leader, each session is an opportunity to listen and share various perspectives, grounded in an ethic of mutual hospitality. SR sessions help participants reflect on a curious list of topics within the Abrahamic tradition. The result is often a deeper understanding of others' and one’s own scriptures, as well as the development of strong bonds across faith communities.

This month's study leader is the Rev. Katherine Grieb, PhD. Dr. Grieb is the Director of the Center for Anglican Communion Studies and a long-time professor of biblical studies at Virginia Theological Seminary.
