Join us on Wednesday, April 23, 2025, 7pm EST – 8:30pm EST, for a free webinar with author and activist theologian Ched Myers on his new book, Healing Affluenza and Resisting Plutocracy: Luke’s Jesus and Sabbath Economics.
In this webinar, Ched will unpack what may be the most famous fish story ever: Jesus’ astonishing catch of fish just before the calling of the first disciples. Guided by Ched’s contextual approach to Bible study, participants will discover the radical political, economic, environmental, and theological implications of this familiar story and what it might mean for today’s Christians living under rapacious capitalism and climate collapse.
This 90-minute webinar is free, but registration is required.
Ched Myers is an ecumenical activist theologian who has worked in social change movements for more than forty-five years. After graduate work in New Testament and two decades as an organizer, he has focused on publishing and popular education that animates Scripture and builds capacity for faith-rooted movements for peace and justice. He has written and taught widely about radical discipleship at the intersection of seminary, sanctuary, streets, and soil.
