WHO
Christian Schwarz is the leader of Natural Church Development, now a worldwide organization offering tools to help Christian church congregations toward greater health “naturally.”

WHAT and WHEN
On weekdays, 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., during Thy Kingdom Come (Thursday, 21 May to 31 May 2020) the Dean of Fredericton invites you to read and study “God Is Indestructible.” In seven “virtual” sessions, we’ll discuss two chapters per day. Ideally, join us using a device with a microphone and camera, but we can also call you by telephone or, you might just choose to read along and discuss with others in your own time and according to your own schedule.

Getting the Book
You’ll need a copy of “God is Indestructible.”

Use the class code to sign up and sign in to the Classroom.

At the top centre: “Stream” is a log of our interactions; “Classwork” is material organized according to each session; “People” are the members of the group. So you’ll find the reading assignments for each session, links to other materials you might wish to explore, the opportunity to chat or message other members of the group and at the top left, the link to the meeting space for the sessions.

Once logged in to Classroom, in “Classwork” see GET THE E-BOOK at the very top of the list. One of three formats available (.mobi; .pdf; .epub). The one you’ll need depends on your device (Kindle, Kobo or Nook readers, tablet, smartphone, PC etc.). [See below for more information about using these files.] The cost of the e-book is $20. Payment please through the Cathedral HERE, mail or drop off in the secure mail slot at the Cathedral Hall or, add to your next offering.

If it’s impossible for you to read the e-book, or you wish to join us by telephone, please contact me <dean at christchurchcathedral.com> (506) 450-7761. We can arrange to call you and/or have a printed copy of the e-book for you at the same cost. You can also purchase the e-book or print online at NCD Canada (without the 10% discounted bulk pricing being made available by NCD).

Come back to the classroom or have us call you each day just before 4:00 p.m. and join the discussion.

More about the e-book:
Amazon Kindle. Use the .mobi file. Visit your Amazon account page and view “Content and Devices.” Find your Kindle device and the unique email address to send files to your Kindle. Attach the .mobi to a message and send to that address. Your book will appear in your library.
PDF. This is a normal document file that can be read using any PDF reader or most web browsers these days on a desktop PC, Mac, tablet or smartphone.
Other. epub is a generic e-book format used by Kobo, Nook, Calibre and other apps and devices. Adding the file to any of these will enable your reading in the way you usually do.

Visit the Classroom, sign up and sign in. We’ll do everything possible to end by 5:00 p.m. each day but feel free to come and go as you need to do!
