Spiritseekers seek to find their Rhythm


FUMC Pasadena Spiritseekers Adult Sunday school continues their 11 week study of Rob Bell’s NOOMA series this week with Rhythm which strives to discover if our lives are in tune with God's plan for the world.



When: 9:00 AM Sunday Morning
Where: In the church lounge at FUMC Pasadena
500 E. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena CA 91101

Summer 2012, Spiritseekers hosts a 12-week DVD and discussion series produced by NOOMA and featuring Rob Bell.  Founder of the Mars Hill Bible Church in Grandville, Michigan, Bell has gained rock star status, particularly among young Christians.  Last year, Time Magazine listed him among the 100 most influential people in the world.  Bell has been labeled “evangelical,” but his most recent book Love Wins drew fire from conservative church leaders.  Although Rob Bell’s theology defies easy labels, most agree that he challenges Christians to delve more deeply into their faith.  He asks the questions many of us are afraid to ask and does not offer easy answers.

SpiritSeekers Seek the Spirit with NOOMA


NOOMA starts on Sunday, June 24th, when First United Methodist Church Adult Education SpiritSeekers, will begin a 12 - week discussion and film series produced by NOOMA featuring Mars Hill Bible Church founder Rob Bell. 

Our first discussion will be centered on the film Dust, which asks the question “Does God believe in us?” 

Join SpiritSeekers at 9:00 AM Sunday mornings in the Church Lounge of First United Methodist Church Pasadena for good coffee and outstanding discussion.

Bell received his B.A. from Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois, and his M.Div. from Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena.  In 2011, he stepped down from the Mars Hill Bible Church to pursue projects that reach a larger audience.  He is reported to be returning to Southern California.
