Class #1: Ruth – Tuesday Mornings

Many of us struggle through seasons of bitterness, tears, and loss, wondering if there could ever be a happy ending to our stories. The story of Ruth affirms that yes, there is hope. However, it's not found in a happy ending scribed by a novelist’s pen, but in the power, protection, and care of a sovereign God. In this study from author, Kelly Minter, we'll examine Ruth's journey of unbearable loss, redeeming love, and divine legacy. We'll see how God proves Himself faithful as the One who rescues, revives, and restores. This class will meet Tuesday mornings, 9:15-11:15am with leaders, Leanne Windle and Melissa Blazo, in room 303 beginning January 6th through February 24th. The cost of the Ruth workbook that includes video access is $22.

Class #2: 2 Timothy – Tuesday Mornings

Shortly before his death, Paul wrote a letter to his son in the faith, Timothy--the second of two letters to Timothy in the canon of Scripture. Throughout the letter Paul is encouraging, instructing, warning, and exhorting Timothy in his faith, ministry, and carrying on the mission that Christ has given all of His followers--to strengthen and expand the Kingdom of God. We'll learn about maturing our faith through prayer, sound teaching, and godly leadership as we study 2 Timothy. We’ll include a brief overview of 1 Timothy on our first day of class (January 6th) so please read through that short book to prepare. You may choose to use the Precept Upon Precept workbook as your tool to study ($16) or a 2 Timothy Scripture Journal and inductive study folder with cross references and some interpretation and application questions ($10). This class will meet Tuesday mornings, 9:15-11:15am with leaders, Heidi Fulk and Danielle Hay, in room 401 beginning January 6th through February 24th.

Class #3: Psalms – Tuesday Evenings

Psalms is a book of Hebrew poetry, inspired by the Holy Spirit, and written by God’s people on the individual and corporate expressions of worship. It is the adoration of God and the grateful plea for His provision. It includes declaration of truth about God and the honest struggle and feelings of the psalmists. This sacred poetry introduces themes such as the ways of the righteous and the wicked, kinship, and the value of God’s Law. We’ll utilize a workbook from The Village Church (Jen Wilkin is one of the authors) as our tool to study and the cost is $20. This class will meet Tuesday evenings, 6:45-8:30pm with leader, Gina Murrin, in room 302 beginning January 6th through March 17th.

Class #4: Faith Essentials – Prayer – Wednesday Evenings

Faith Essentials is geared towards those seeking to grow in knowing and following Jesus together—essentials of true Christian faith. This is an especially great place for any who are just beginning the faith journey! Our time together will include Bible study and Bible study skills, time to learn about and practice together worship and prayer, as well as the opportunity for encouragement and challenge in relationship with others. For our Winter session, we’ll be using The Purpose of Prayer from Precept International as our tool for Bible study. This study is ideal for women at any point on their walk with Christ, but particularly for those who desire to grow their prayer life. As we read, study, and discuss specific Scripture about prayer, we’ll discover God’s purpose for prayer—how we can commune and communicate with Him and seek His help and will for ourselves and others. The Purpose of Prayer workbook is $17. This class will meet Wednesday evenings, 6:30-8:00pm with leader, Laura Malcolm, in the main office classroom beginning January 7th through March 18th. Built in bonus: if you have kids birth through high school, they can be involved in age-specific groups on our campus at the same time!
