VIDEO. With Dr. Patrick Reyes, we explored two well known stories in the bible in the hopes of gaining a fresh perspective for their importance today. We engaged the text and each other with a renewed imagination for our shared tradition. Most importantly, we had fun.

Dr. Reyes currently serves as the dean of Auburn Theological Seminary, a 205-year-old Presbyterian seminary in New York City. He is also the President of the Board of the Religion Education Association and the Co-Dean (volunteer of the Freedom Seminary, Children’s Defense Fund.
