This journey marked the fourth year that Dr. Reto Gieré has led students on a geological, historical, and gustatorial tour of his home. As a geology course, Penn in the Alps takes an ecological approach on the study of Alpine culture. Lectures range from topics on Earth sciences to Alpine folk instruments, while emphasizing the interdependence between the natural environment and human livelihood.

  • To Complement the Small Group Study Where Does Comfort Come From
    Sermon Series: When Life Gets Hard To be used with: Session Six Sermon Title Possibilities: Only His Comfort Will Do, Being His Comfort Scripture: Psalm 51 Connection with Unit Theme: To complement the small group study Where Does Comfort Come From. Ultimately our comfort has to come from the Lord. But we are also called to be the means of comfort for others. As God comforts us we comfort others. You see this as well in Psalm 51. Though his “broken bones” are the direct result of his own personal sin it can still be helpful for any form of suffering. Introduction: In the Seinfeld episode, “The Pothole”, we are confronted with Jerry’s fear of germs. It all starts when he accidentally drops his girlfriend’s toothbrush in the toilet bowl. Jerry, with a grimace, plunges his hand into the toilet to retrieve the wayward brush. He puts the toothbrush back on a shelf and frantically begins washing his hands. As he turns around, to his dismay, his girlfriend with smiling face is brushing her teeth. We are then exposed to several awkward scenes where Jerry flashes back to that moment of the toothbrush--resting itself inside the toilet soaking up all its germs--whilst his girlfriend is anxiously awaiting a kiss. Jerry tries everything to sterilize his girlfriend but the sickening memory of the brush in the toilet haunts him. Nothing seems to work. Finally Jerry has to come clean. A few days later as Jerry comes home he notices that Jenna, his girlfriend, has locked him out.
