This is your special invitation to enroll in Dominic Done’s RELI 215 course!
Earlier this year, Done wrote When Faith Fails: Finding God in the Shadow of Doubt. The subject of faith and doubt is one he will take on during this spring semester at Fox, when he will challenge students to explore some of the issues that create doubt and discover ways to move through those seasons in pursuit of deep faith.
This is a great opportunity to sit under the teaching of Done, who is committed to helping you be intellectually and culturally prepared to engage in our post-Christian world.
Questions? Contact Brian Doak at bdoak@georgefox.edu.

The season of Advent is upon us, and the Office of Spiritual Life has partnered with faculty and students to publish the 2019 Advent Project. This daily reader is designed, written and created by people in the George Fox community and is intended to point us toward Christ as we await his birth.
Feel free to share it with friends, family and your faith community. Additionally, we will be sending a video at the beginning of each week to introduce each topic (hope, peace, joy and love). We hope it is helpful to you in some form as we celebrate this season of Advent together.
Contact Jamie Johnson (jamiej@georgefox.edu) with any questions.

Don’t forget that the Bruin Store buys back books year-round! Bring your student ID and the textbooks you no longer need, and if we can buy them, you will leave with cash in hand.
If you rented books for fall semester through the Bruin Store, the last day to check those books back in is Friday, Dec. 13. Please bring them to the Bruin Store (along with your student ID) during business hours to avoid any late, processing, or non-return fees.
Did you find the book you need but Amazon sells it for less? No worries! Just show us that the same book is being sold and shipped from Amazon, and we will be happy to match the price.
