Each fall we offer a long-term Bible Study such as "Disciple" or "Jesus in the Gospels". These classes run from 32 to 36 weeks. In addition, we offer short term studies as the need arises and as people are led to teach. This usually happens three to four times a year. There is usually a women's study on Tuesday mornings at 10:00 AM.
Women's Tuesday Morning Bible Study
We will begin our Tuesday morning Bible Study on Tuesday, September 22nd. We will meet at 10:00am in room 121. Come join us for our fall study. We will have several studies to choose from on the 22nd and the group will pick their study.

Long-Term Bible Study
DISCIPLE: Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study (DISCIPLE I) BECOMING DISCIPLES THROUGH BIBLE STUDY is the foundation of the DISCIPLE Bible Study program.
DISCIPLE assumes that the Bible is the key to renewal in the church. It recognizes the human-divine nature of the Bible: The actual texts of Scripture were written by human beings like ourselves in their cultural settings, under the divine inspiration of God.
DISCIPLE affirms that the canon was formed as it is in order for God to speak to us. BECOMING DISCIPLES THROUGH BIBLE STUDY gives equal time to both the Old and New Testament, emphasizing the wholeness of the Bible as the revelation of God. DISCIPLE aims at transformation, not just information, and calls on persons to submit themselves to examination by Scripture, to put themselves under the power of God’s Word, and to be changed by God’s Word. DISCIPLE invites persons to bring their experiences and struggles to the Scripture. All persons know something is amiss with their existence and yearn for the Word from God.
BECOMING DISCIPLES THROUGH BIBLE STUDY uses biblical language and images and draws upon the work of scholars to aid understanding of the Bible.
This study requires reading large portions of Scripture each week and is based on careful study and preparation. During the course of thirty-four weeks, groups will move through the biblical stories of Creation to the New Jerusalem. The titles of the sessions along with theme words; theme verses; and major persons, events, and topics will set the sequence of the biblical story in the minds of the participants. The principal Scripture for each session follows the chronological movement of the biblical story.
