Meeting in the library

Duration: ~12 weeks - begins March 17th

Materials Needed: Bible; Study Guide will be available but is optional (donations accepted)

Intended audience: Women of all ages

The people we read about in Scripture faced many of the same challenges we do today. By observing how biblical characters brought their fears and frustrations to God, we can learn to do the same. Filled with encouragement and truth, this study will remind us that God's character and presence can give us strength to face any difficulty.

Join us as we delve into Scripture, finding help, hope, and refreshment for our souls.

Meeting upstairs in room 214

Duration: TBD - begins January 5th

Materials Needed: book: Paul - A Man of Grace and Grit by Charles R. Swindoll (see Clayton for books), Bible

Intended audience: Men of all ages

The apostle Paul was, in his own words, "the chief of all sinners." Yet, this colossal figure left an indelible signature of greatness. Join well known pastor and author Chuck Swindoll in Great Lives: Paul as he examines the influence and impact of this remarkable man. Tough, tenacious, and fiercely determined, Paul pursued his divine mission with unflinching resolve, and God used him mightily to turn the world upside down for Christ. Perhaps that's why Paul's life is such a source of hope for us. If the chief of sinners can be forgiven and become God's chosen vessel, can't He forgive and use us as well? Drawing largely from the Acts of the Apostles, Swindoll paints a vivid picture of Paul's incredible life and legacy, tracing the story of how God reached down to Paul in all his self-righteous zeal and crushed his pride, softened his heart, and transformed this once-violent aggressor into an influential spokesman for Christ.

We'll read a portion of Paul - A Man of Grace and Grit each week, and discuss as a group. Stop by Room 214 any Sunday at 9am to spend time with us - - - or commit to the whole study! We'd love to welcome you (we're a welcoming group)! And tell a friend about us! (No need to purchase the book - - - I've got books on order. If you let me know you'll be joining us, I'll do my best to have the required number on hand for the January 5 launch!)

Led by: Shane Silva and Phil Clater

Meeting in Room 204 (the Music Lab)

Materials Needed: Bible; Study Guides will be available

Written in a funny and highly relatable dialogue between both husband and wife, Vertical Marriage will guide you toward building a vibrant relationship at every level including communication, conflict, intimacy, and romance - though Dave is still figuring that last one out. Through their unique perspectives, they share an intimate, sometimes hilarious and at times deeply poignant narrative of one couple's journey to reconnecting with God and discovering the joy and power of a vertical marriage.

Led by: Dave Sanders

Meeting in room 212

Duration: 5 weeks - begins January 12th

Materials Needed: Bible

Intended audience: Everyone

We are surrounded by people who have a different view of reality, and since we want to be more effective ambassadors for our Lord, we need to learn how to evaluate the worldviews of those we want to reach with the Gospel. Following the Stand to Reason University (STR U) course Evaluating Worldviews, we will learn what a worldview is, the questions that every worldview needs to answer, how to evaluate a worldview, and the role apologetics plays in discovering reality. We'll seek answers to which worldview is true and which ones are false, with a goal of perceiving the world the way it truly is so we can live and thrive in reality.

Led by: Mike Boots

Meeting in room 211

Duration: 13 weeks - begins December 1st

Materials Needed: Bible, Outlines and Study Material provided

Intended audience: Everyone

In this verse-by-verse study of Genesis Chapters 24-35, we will see how God's covenant with Abraham is passed on to his offspring, Isaac and Jacob. God personally renames Jacob, "Israel," and makes him the father of the twelve tribes and ancestor of our Messiah.
