Between worship services: 9:45-10:30 AM
We will NOT meet on Sunday, January 19 and 26, due to schedule conflicts with congregational meetings.
On Sunday mornings between Labor Day and Memorial Day weekends, we gather around the table in Room 2 to discuss our lives, our hopes, our faith, and what we're finding in the Bible passages we read together. Expect laughter and some aha moments, too.
We're studying the book of Acts, especially looking at how the first believers came to see that there was good news and they could be part of it. We'll draw connections between the questions and problems the first Christians faced and the very similar ones we come up against today. We'll look for clues as to how we, like the early believers, can walk together, loving Christ and loving all, for the sake of the world.

Spring 2019 Series: The Story of Jonah
Our last topic of the 2018-19 season was a Bible study of the book of Jonah. Many people assume this is just a crazy adventure involving a big fish (or a whale). In fact, the story is rich in meaning about what it's like to trust and follow God, as well as about our attitudes toward other people. It also is a really entertaining story to read! Jonah is a short book, just four chapters on a few pages. We're digging into a chapter per week on April 28 and May 5, 12, and 19. We'll consider historical and geographic background, as well as what the book of Jonah tells us about God and how we might experience the message on a spiritual level. Join us for as many weeks as you can. |

Past Topics
This year, we have studied passages from 1 Corinthians about what it means to be the "body of Christ," and we've investigated the ways in which different people and communities interpret the Bible differently. We also investigated the practice of repentance and why it can be a blessing. During the fall of 2018, we discussed the theology of Martin Luther, did a Bible study of passages from Mark, and explored themes related to preparing for Christmas.
