Crowds clamored, women wept in awe, disciples dared to do the impossible—all because of Jesus. Somewhere in the overly familiar we’ve lost our fascination.

Take Courage
Take Courage is written by Jennifer Rothschild and will be taught by Judy Googins.
Do you ever feel like the happy ending of your story is a million miles away?
Then you know how the Jewish people felt when they returned to their wrecked land after exile and began rebuilding the temple. They were distracted, discouraged, and ready to throw in the towel. But the prophet Haggai reminded them they could find courage in the God who had never left them.
Sometimes the landscapes of our lives feel wrecked, with our hope and purpose in shambles. We too get distracted and discouraged. However, God’s presence and promises give us courage to press on and trust Him with our story.

Bible Journaling-When Strivings Cease
Bible Journaling is taught by Kelly Smith and Kitty Groth. This year they will be going through Ruth Chou Simons’ When Strivings Cease.
In this hustling, image-forward age of opportunity, we feel more anxious than ever. Despite all the affirming memes and self-reflections that dominate social media feeds, approval and worth often seem assigned to what we do rather than who we are. And we end up constantly feeling like we’re behind, lacking, and failing—at home, at work, with friends, with God. In When Strivings Cease, Ruth guides you on a journey to find freedom from the never-ending quest for self-improvement.
This study will be offered in person on Tuesday mornings.
Judges
Judges is written and taught by Jan Burkhart.
This study will be offered in person on Tuesday mornings.
Anxious
Anxious is written by Scarlet Hiltibidal and will be taught by Taylor Gibson.
In this study, we’ll look at different people in the Bible and what we can learn from them about anxiety. We’ll discover how to live in freedom by clinging to God’s Word and God’s gospel in community and prayer.
True peace comes when we learn to hold God’s Word up to what worries us. There, we learn we can’t fix ourselves; we can’t protect ourselves. Instead, the Bible tells us we can rest, knowing that Jesus walked into the broken, sad, scary places to rescue us and love us. He is the One who fixes. His is the only protection that matters.
Join Scarlet Hiltibidal in this 8-session study to learn how we can practically take hold of the perfect peace that is only available through God as we dive deeply into His Word, embrace the practice of prayer, and live authentically in the support of our communities of faith.
