Experience! Faith Formation Curriculum for Adults is a series of resources developed to provide what Marcus Borg has termed "adult theological re-education." Each resource in the series is based on the work of a thought provoking author, and introduces lay people to contemporary theological and biblical insights in a small group setting. The curriculum includes a Leader's Guide, Participant Booklets, a DVD that enhances each session, visual art to accompany each session, and a copy of the source book. The first two titles in this series are: Experiencing the Bible Again for the First Time and Experiencing Jesus - both by Tim Scorer with Marcus Borg.
