Fall Tuesday Morning Bible Study

Tuesday morning Bible study will be offered on Tuesdays starting September 17 from 9:30-11:30am.

James: What You Do Matters

Join Margaret in a joy-filled, fresh study of the book of the Bible that sounds more like Jesus than any other letter in the New Testament. You’ll discover the genuine markers of true faith, develop new practices of spiritual maturity, and discover how much the Father of heavenly lights treasures you.

This study is written by Margaret Feinberg and taught by Debbie Stuart. You can purchase your book here.

Precept: Galatians & Titus

Bible Journaling- As For Me
Bible Journaling- As For Me

In this 7-session Bible study, author and singer Adrienne Camp invites you to join her on a journey through the book of Psalms. Gain a deeper understanding of who God is and be encouraged to hold on to Him no matter what is happening around you. Let the psalms become the prayers you carry with you into every moment of every day, so that you, too, can say with confidence, “As for me, I will worship and serve the Lord no matter what.”

This Bible Journaling class will be taught by Kelly Smith. You can purchase your book here.

Sermon on the Mount

In His sweeping depiction of kingdom citizenship, Jesus utters some of the most familiar passages in all of Scripture. Most of us have only encountered the Sermon on the Mount in fragments, considering its subdivisions as complete teachings in their own right—a study on blessedness; a reflection on the Lord’s Prayer; a discussion of religious devotion, money, ambition, and relationships.

What if we navigated these three chapters in Matthew as they were originally heard? What if we read them as one cohesive, well-ordered message, intended to challenge us to think differently about what it means to be a follower of Jesus?

This 9-session study will give you the opportunity to do just that. Come and learn from Jesus, just as His disciples did.

This study is written by Jen Wilkin and taught by Leslie Bowers. You can purchase your book here.

What Love Is
What Love Is

The Letters of 1, 2 & 3 John were written to encourage followers of Jesus to remain faithful to the truth. Believers are challenged to look at contrasting themes such as walking in the light instead of darkness, truth versus lies and deception, loving God more than loving the world, and the meaning of true fellowship and community rather than shallowness.

This 7-session study not only reveals the heart of John but also the heart of Jesus. A great addition to The Living Room Series, this study includes recipes and a more relational approach.

Rooted: A Study on Identity
Rooted: A Study on Identity

It might seem contrary to popular opinion, but your identity is not something you can live out on your own. We were made to function within a community, within relationships.  

 Rooted: A Study of Identity, Part Three dives into chapters of Genesis, 1 Corinthians, Romans, and Ephesians to discover how our community shapes our identity. Community can be tricky. Unity can be difficult, but we will act as your guide through the Bible’s most pertinent texts on these subjects. We’ll uncover humankind’s purpose on this Earth, and how we were designed to glorify God together.  

Rooted is written by Precepts and taught by Stacy Davis. You can purchase your book here.

Daniel

The Book of Daniel: A perilous and powerful book offering a vision of faithfulness even in the most trying times. This book invites us to fix our eyes upon our Creator—to join with Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, and Daniel in their persistent prayer and worship—and hold strong in the knowledge that God’s goodness abounds. It invites us to confidence in God’s sovereignty and unfailing Word as we study prophecy—both that which has been fulfilled and that which will be fulfilled.

This study is written and taught by Jan Burkhart. Lesson discussion will be led by Kim Cox. No book needed. This study will be available online as well.

Resilient Life
Resilient Life

Rebekah Lyons will teach you how to incorporate five rules of resilience into your life that will awaken you to a strength you never knew you had.

Have you ever felt like you’re not ready for what the world has in store for you?

Life is hard for all kinds of reasons. It’s tempting to try to dodge trials and move past the pain as quickly as possible. In this 5-session video Bible study (video streaming code included), bestselling author Rebekah Lyons uses a unique blend of story, psychology, theology, and biblical teaching to show you and your group how to:

  • Embrace your struggles and develop a resilience and joy that isn’t dependent on circumstances.
  • Recognize your triggers for feeling overwhelmed so that you can reset.
  • Cultivate a strong community to rally around you in stressful seasons.
  • Overcome setbacks without giving up.

Grace: A Study on Ephesians
Grace: A Study on Ephesians

This is one of the few truly inductive Bible studies for women by a woman. Its main focus is on helping the reader understand what the author was saying to the original readers, the starting point for all fruitful study of Scripture. This 10-week study covers all of Ephesians, is ideal for personal or group use, and is one of three such studies from Keri Folmar. These studies are meant to be written in, so they have lots of extra white space and are spiral-bound for ease of use. “With simple clarity, Keri Folmar guides us in learning to study the Bible…she encourages us to read God’s Word carefully, understand clearly, and apply prayerfully…she encourages her readers to listen well to God’s inspired Word.” – Kathleen Nielson is author of the Living Word Bible Studies; Director of Women’s Initiatives, The Gospel Coalition; and wife of Niel, who served as President of Covenant College from 2002 to 2012.

This study is written by Keri Folmar and taught by Deborah Loper. You can purchase your book here.
