Monday Night Bible Study
Join us Monday nights for 4 weeks, starting September 8 for a Bible study, 7:00 p.m. for an hour. Yep- we’re going to read the Bible. Not a book that writes about the Bible. So often we read tons of books to tell us what the Bible says. I have found that because the Bible can be challenging to understand, it’s easy to rely on others to tell us what it means. What would it be like to gather for 4 weeks, and together, just study the Bible? We’ll read about Jesus life and teachings from Jesus himself? In the process we’ll uncover concepts of how to interpret and study the Bible. I have found that God has spoken most powerfully to me when I just sit down and read the Bible itself, asking God to show me what I need to see and what God’s message is for me. This is a no-homework class beginning to look at Jesus’s life and teachings from the gospel of Mark. The primary purpose will be to hear what God has to say to you through Scripture, and to explore that together. Pastor Lori facilitating.
Tuesday Morning Book Study
"Lead with Prayer"
Prayer is powerful, and changes everything about how God works in and through our daily lives. We believe it, but we don’t always know how to actually tap into that power. Join us Tuesday mornings at 10:00 a.m. for 5 weeks as we read together the book, “Lead with Prayer: The Spiritual Habits of World-Changing Leaders,” by Skoog, Greer, and Doolittle. The authors interviewed pastors of the fastest growing churches worldwide, and asked about their prayer life. This book is the result of research of powerful pray-ers who lead people spiritually. In this national bestseller you’ll learn as authors share the spiritual habits, techniques, and practices of people who have powerful prayer habits. The book is so powerful that the book was given as a gift to each of the individuals in Pastor Lori’s doctoral cohort. Sign up on the Connection Card or online. Robin Jasinski facilitating. Book is $16.
Wednesday Night Study
"The Celtic Way of Prayer"
Join us for a 5 week study, Wednesdays, starting September 10 at 7:00 p.m. for an hour as we explore the world of Celtic Spirituality. We’ll read together the book, The Celtic Way of Prayer by Esther De Waal. Celtic Spirituality emphasizes a deep connection with nature and seeing God in all that is around us. In this study we'll discover together practices, rhythms, and the essential role of community. Ultimately, Celtic Spirituality is a journey inward as you discover and rediscover the sacredness of yourself and all of creation. Facilitated by Jena Metzler. The book is $13.
