About this Event
Jesus, Fact and Fiction
A talk with Martyn Baguley
Who were Jesus’s parents? Could he read and write? How confidently can we attribute the sayings in the Gospels to him? And what should we make of the miracle stories?
Join church member Martyn Baguley as he explores these questions and more, considering what we can know about Jesus and where history, belief and storytelling meet.
At St Mark’s, Unitarians approach church a little differently. We don’t ask you to sign up to a set of beliefs. We make room for questions, take freedom of thought seriously and recognise that people can reach different conclusions while remaining part of the same community.
This talk is an invitation to explore, with no religious knowledge or belief required. People of all faiths and none are welcome. We ask everyone to bring curiosity and respect for other perspectives, with a willingness to listen rather than a need to persuade.
Come with your questions. You don’t need to arrive with the answers.
