Attend Lecture by Lisa Smith "Forgotten Wisdom: Jesus the Bridegroom for a New Generation"
On Tuesday, March 18, 2025, from 11 AM to 12 PM in the Payson Library's Surfboard Room, join Pepperdine Libraries for a talk by Lisa Smith, assistant professor of teaching of English, titled "Forgotten Wisdom: Jesus the Bridegroom for a New Generation."
The topic is pulled from her newest book, This is My Beloved: Embracing the Bridal Love of Jesus, published in December by Wipf and Stock. The book uses writings by 18th-century Christians to shed light on topics for modern-day believers. Specifically, Smith looks at how we can understand Jesus as the Bridegroom of the church as he appears throughout the Bible and how we can relate to him in that way.
Everyone is welcome to attend the talk, and admission is free.
