Toxic faith to be explored at Lifetree Café next week

July 17, 2013   ·   0 Comments

Ways that religion is sometimes harmful will be explored at Lifetree Café this cming Wednesday (July 24).
The program, entitled Toxic Faith: When Religion Hurts, will feature an exclusive filmed interview with Sam Brower, the private investigator who cracked open the case that led to the arrest of Warren Jeffs, the leader of the polygamous Fundamentalist Church of Latter-day Saints.
“Recent research shows that religion and church involvement enhance wellbeing and health,” observed Lifetree representative Craig Cable. “But sometimes religion crosses from being something positive to something sinister-something toxic.”
The program will run from 7 until 8 p.m. and admission is free. Snacks and beverages will be available.
Lifetree Café is at 6025 Old Church Rd. in Caledon East, in the café space in St. James’ Church.
Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a casual coffeehouse-type setting. Questions may be directed to Bruce Neville at 416-579-9977 or Desiree Neville at 416-579-6748.
Lifetree Café Caledon will be closed in August and will resume Sept. 4.
