Let me back up a few steps. I was on a walk across campus today (no longer a student, but I live nearby) and a guy approached me and asked if I attended church - I said yes. He asked what my faith was, I responded that I was a Christian. He asked me if I knew what God's promise to us was - I responded that we are offered salvation through the saving grace of Jesus Christ. He then asked if I was aware that Scripture clearly outlines a feminine nature of God. I replied that I was surprised to hear that. He finally invited me to a Bible study they were holding there on campus.
I won't be going, but I am curious who these people are. Some googling makes me think this particular viewpoint about God's femininity is somehow related to the Dead Sea Scrolls, but it didn't help me identify who the group was. It appeared that about 8-10 of them were approaching people in front of the student union. I'm not sure if this is relevant or not, but 2/3 of them were black - notable only because the student body of the University of Nebraska-Omaha is overwhelmingly white.
I didn't really know where to put this, but a controversial bit of theology was my only real clue, so I figured I'd take it here and see what people thought.
