The Gospel of Thomas
Jim Moir
The Gospel of Thomas was unearthed in 1945 near Cairo. It is not a narrative like the established gospels; rather, it is a collection of sayings and quotations attributed to Jesus. There is controversy about the age and the reliability of this gospel, issues which Jim Moir will address. This book reinforced Jim's interest in the life and teachings of Jesus. He hopes to show how Thomas can give us a new perspective on Christian scriptures.

If you don't bring forth what is inside you, what you don't bring forth will destroy you.
[Jesus of Nazareth
c. 5-38 CE, Jewish Prophet, Mystic, Founder of Christianity
in The Gospel of Thomas ]

Literacy unlocks the door to learning throughout life, is essential to development and health, and opens the way for democratic participation and active citizenship.
[Kofi Annan]

When I tutor an adult student I am paid with joy.
