Study Book: Revelation - Eternal King, Everlasting Kingdom, by Jen Wilkin

Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But if all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable, we should assume Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book of the Bible. Why don’t we see it that way?

Two thousand years ago, John’s Revelation was circulated and read aloud among seven churches in Asia Minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for you today. Over 10 sessions of verse-by-verse Bible study, Jen Wilkin helps you discover how the last book of the Bible—the culmination of God's great story—speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age.

Studying The Armor of God, bring Bible

Explore the Armor of God with us! Last year, focused on being strong in the LORD and in His mighty power. During the summer, we explored the shield of faith. This fall, we're continuing this journey and diving into the other armor pieces from Ephesians 6:10-18.Our approach involves reading relevant Bible passages and discussing them as a group. Both Old and New Testament verses are explored. The aim? To highlight how the Bible is a remarkable resource for our daily lives; its wisdom is applicable in all situations. With God's armor, we're equipped to confront anything.Joining the study for the first time? No worries! Bring your own Bible (or use one of ours) – no advance preparation required. This is a homework-free zone – just a time of growth and learning together.

Studying Revelation, bring Bible

We will be studying the book of Revelation this year. This is something I said I'd never do but God had other ideas!! Come join us as we dive (perhaps a little deeper) into the historical side of the text. One of the resources that I love is N.T. Wright's book (commentary) called Revelation for Everyone. No need to order the book, just come armed with The Word and a notebook for taking notes. I will also be using The NIV's Application Commentary of Revelation, written by Craig S. Keener. My goal is to break this book down so that we aren't so intimidated by it, and reveal the true message behind this mysterious text.

I look forward to meeting you and getting to know each of you!

Study: When You Pray, by multiple authors

Prayer is a gift…an invitation to talk with God. But prayer can also be a challenge. Do you have trouble thinking of works to say, fear some emotions are too intense to express to God, or reach the end of a day only to realize you haven’t prayed at all? You’re not alone. Thankfully, in God’s Word we encounter many voices who teach us how to pray. Join Carol Caldwell as she leads this study, of prayers in the Bible that can inspire our own prayers. When we pray, we will find that our faith is strengthened and our hearts are united to Jesus.

Study: Discerning the Voice of God, by Priscilla Shirer

If hearing God’s voice has seemed challenging, join us as we explore how to have a more intimate relationship with Him, one that can make hearing Him…His will, His heart, and His voice…your ongoing experience. Discover how to listen with greater confidence, clarity, and discernment. In our study, Priscila Shirer leads us in these things:

- How to more deeply understand the Holy Spirit’s role in our lives
- How to differentiate His voice from imposters’ voices (or our own)
- How to grow consistently in obedience, surrender, stillness and humility.

We look forward to learning how to listen as we study together.

Study: Bible study using the Discovery Bible Study Method
We will be going through the Bible from Genesis to the Gospels, using the Discovery Bible Study method. What is that, you ask? It is a way to learn how to discover for yourself what the Bible says about God, about the sacrificial salvation by Jesus, and God's eternal plan. And it helps give tools to enable us to share the scripture with others who may not know our Lord yet. So bring your Bible, and a notebook, and join us as we share life in fellowship and dig into God's work together.
