Theology on Tap
At Theology on Tap, people discuss culture and theology while drinking great beer at a local pub. This is a ministry intended to blend catechesis, fellowship, and evangelism. We meet twice per month—once in Marietta at Johnnie MacCrackens and once in Canton at Reformation Brewery. Theology on Tap is for both men and women, and there is no age restriction on who can attend (though of course, you must be 21+ to enjoy the beer). The event begins at 8pm, generally starting with a 10-15 minute presentation by the speaker/moderator. After that, we discuss the topic for the evening till about 9:30 or 10pm, breaking periodically to refill our pints. The best way to learn of upcoming Theology on Tap events is to subscribe to our newsletter or the CTK Google Calendar, and to watch our Facebook for upcoming events. (We typically create the Facebook event a week in advance.)
