Disciple Bible Study

DISCIPLE BIBLE STUDY

 

Disciple Bible Study has been shaping lives for more that 20 years.  Reading the Bible daily, praying for one another, and gathering to hear from scholars and others in a goup can reshape your life as well as renew our congregation.  Already men and women are committing themselves to Bible Study.

 

Disciple 1, Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study, calls for the reading of 80 % of the Bible.  Over 34 weeks Disciple covers the entire Bible (Old and New Testaments) following the biblical story from Creation to the New Jerusalem.  This sounds intimidating – but is actually doable and amazingly delightful.  The group of twelve men and women meet each Monday evening from 7:00 – 9:30 for study, support, prayer and Christian friendship.  Katherine Spear serves as leader.

 

Invitation to Genesis, led by Pastor Sharon Freunderberger, meets on Wednesday afternoons or evenings.  This 10 week short term Disciple study opens with “In the beginning…”  These words open the story of the first beginning, the Creation – and an entire book of beginnings. Genesis recounts the story of God’s people from Adam through Joseph. 

 

Invitation to the Old Testament, led by Paul Richer, meets for 8 weeks on Wednesday evenings .  You will be engaged by the story of God’s calling the people of Israel through the many voices of the Hebrew test- in poetry, history and prophecy.

 

Call Katherine Spear, or Pastor Sharon or Paul Richer to indicate your desire to be part of these spiritually enriching studies.
