Old Brogue Irish Pub

For centuries, the lute was considered the "prince of instruments," and lute players were celebrities in royal courts across Europe. Ayreheart, a progressive folk trio founded by lutenist Ronn McFarlane, seeks to restore the instrument to its former glory - but in a modern context. During the Renaissance and Baroque eras, lute players were songwriters and pop stars who weren't afraid to improvise. The three members of Ayreheart - McFarlane on lute, Will Morris on fretless bass, violin and colascione, and Mattias Rucht on percussion - all have backgrounds in rock and jazz, which comes through in their energetic performances.

Hailing from the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina, these southern siblings delight with their pure unique style and blend of eclectic Americana and original, blood harmonies and matriarchal melodies. As sisters, Rebecca and Katherine began their harmonious journey at birth. Writing, creating and sculpting sound was a family birthright and music a family affair. “The Infamous Holman Sisters” features the incredible melodic and sweeping musical stylings of Miss Dawn Cunningham on violin. Dawn’s textured layering and emotional melodies dynamically infuse and perfectly compliments both original ballads and fan favorites. Her lifelong devotion to her craft is instantaneously recognizable from note one and she completes this triad of feminine southern energy charm.&nbsp;

What do we do with biblical passages that have been used to justify discrimination, exclusion, or oppression? How do we distinguish between what Scripture says and what people have used Scripture to say?
Why do sincere people reach radically different conclusions from the same Scriptures—and what happens when those interpretations are used to determine who belongs, who holds power, and who is treated as less than equal?
Is the problem with these passages themselves, or with the ways we have interpreted and applied them?
Led by Pastor Daniel Park, October’s Taproom Theology will explore several historically difficult passages of Scripture—passages that have, at times, been used as weapons. 
Together, we’ll consider how interpretation shapes our understanding of Scripture, how these texts have been used throughout history, and how we as Christians can respond faithfully today.
