Gospel of Thomas - Overview and Discussion

In December 1945, near the Egyptian town of Nag Hammadi, a farmer unearthed a sealed jar that held one of the most electrifying finds in the history of religion: a gospel with no birth, no miracles, no crucifixion, and no resurrection. It contains only the voice of Jesus, in 114 sayings that open with a startling promise: whoever finds the meaning of these words will not taste death. Some sayings will feel familiar. Others will stop you cold. The Kingdom isn't coming on a cloud; it's spread across the earth, and people don't see it. Split a piece of wood, and he is there. Bring forth what is within you, and it will save you. Some scholars think parts of Thomas may be as old as the canonical gospels, and its very existence raises questions that still divide scholars today. Who was Didymus Judas Thomas, the "twin"? Why did this text disappear? And what happens to faith when the path to God runs inward instead of upward? Whether you're a longtime seeker or simply curious, come explore one of the most influential lost texts ever recovered. No background is needed. Just bring an open mind and your questions.
