Covenant Presbyterian Church - Charlotte, NC

Martha Moore-Keish 

February 1, March 1, May 3
9:30 am in Fellowship Hall

Martha Moore-Keish is a thoughtful and engaging teacher who helps people make sense of Christian faith as it is actually lived, not just studied. With clarity, honesty, and practical wisdom, she invites communities to wrestle with big questions about God, responsibility, and life together. Martha Moore-Keish is the J.B. Green Professor of Theology at Columbia Theological Seminary. She earned the Ph.D. in theology from Emory University, worked in the PC(USA) Office of Theology and Worship, and taught liturgical studies at Yale Divinity School, before becoming a professor of theology at Columbia. She has published books on eucharistic theology and prayer, a research guide on Reformed theology, a commentary on the book of James and a co-edited volume Karl Barth and Comparative Theology. Her latest publication is a co-edited reference volume The T&T Clark Handbook on Sacraments and Sacramentality (2023). In addition to research on liturgical and sacramental theologies, she has long-standing interest in interreligious issues, particularly Christian-Jewish relations and the religions of India. A Reformed theologian committed to theology for the church, she also serves on the new PC(USA) committee to write a new confession for the Book of Confessions. She will speak on the Christian practice of truth telling—how naming our missteps and telling the truth about ourselves and our world opens the way toward healing and wholeness.
 
We are so pleased that Dr. Moore Keish will continue visiting with Covenant on the First Sundays in March and May to continue the conversation.
