Michael Ellick | Day 7 | Advent for Every Body

"Was Mary a mother nature goddess, or was she just a girl from Nazareth?"

 

About today's speaker: The Rev'd Michael Ellick is a United Church of Christ pastor and a Community Organizer from the Goose Hollow neighborhood in Portland, OR. Raised in a Conservative Baptist church in Washington State, Ellick studied Comparative Religion and Philosophy at the University of Washington before earning his M.Div. at Union Theological Seminary. There he grew frustrated with contemporary theological thinking, and looking for new ways to understand the Gospel and real world practices for embodying it, he studied closely under a Tibetan Buddhist teacher for the next seven years.
