SUMMARY:Scriptural Reasoning: “Parent-Child Relationships"
DESCRIPTION:Rumi Forum had its monthly circle on September 21\, 2023\, to study Abrahamic scriptures on “Parent-Child Relationships” with our study leader\, Ibrahim Anli\, from Rumi Forum. \nScriptural Reasoning (SR) allows Christians\, Jews\, and Muslims to study each other’s sacred texts. SR participants meet monthly to read short passages on a topic from their respective scriptures. Facilitated by a study leader\, each session is an opportunity to listen and share various perspectives. 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 scriptures and the development of strong bonds across faith communities. \n                  Scriptural Reasoning: Introduction                          Jewish Scripture: Hebrew Bible \n                  \n                  Christian Scripture: New Testament                                Islamic Scripture: Quran \n                  \nThis Month`s Study Leader \n \nIbrahim Anli is a civic entrepreneur with a career record that bridges nonprofit and academic experience.
