Tapping into Theology began in January 2013 in response to the Holy Father’s call to spread the Gospel during “The Year of Faith," -- in this case, outside the walls of church. The informal gatherings, open to the public, are once a month at the local brew pub in Woodmoor, Pikes Peak Brewing Company (1756 Lake Woodmoor Dr., Monument, CO 80132). We gather on the second Tuesday of the month from 7-9pm, unless otherwise noted.
Every month there is a different speaker. We have had bishops, priests, deacons, laity from throughout the diocese, and parishioners presenting on various theology-related topics. We hope that the presentations help all who attend or listen to the recordings become more engaged in their faith and lead to a deeper relationship with God.
There is no homework, but sometimes there are handouts or suggested reading. Attendance averages 60-80 people each month.
