EXPERIENCING GOD
Wednesdays from 9:30-11:30am | August 28th - December 11th

You'll come to know God intimately, to recognize His voice, and to understand His will for your life. God is inviting you to experience Him in an intimate love relationship through which He reveals to you His will, His ways, and His work.

Anxious: Fighting Anxiety with the Word of God
Wednesdays from 9:00-11:00am | October 2nd - November 20th
Led by Kathy Schell
We live in a broken, sad, and sometimes scary place. We don't need to watch natural disasters and political unrest in the news to know what our bodies already know, but true peace comes when we learn to hold God's word up to what worries us. In this study, we'll look to the Bible for rest, knowing that Jesus walks into the broken places to rescue us and love us!
Anxious: Fighting Anxiety with the Word of God by Scarlet Hiltibidal is available for purchase here.

Thursdays from 9:00-11:00am | October 3rd - November 14th

Chronological Bible Study
Studying the Bible chronologically puts the books, chapters, and verses of scripture in historical order. The benefits of reading the Bible this way helps us understand the story better. We gain a clearer and broader picture of the main character - God and we avoid major gaps in our understanding of God's redemptive plan for mankind.
Starting at the beginning creates a foundation that allows His story to unfold progressively revealing who He is and His astonishing plan for the human race. ALL classes use the NIV Daily Chronological Bible edited by F. LaGard Smith. It can be purchased on Amazon at this link.
You do not have to take the classes in order.

Explore the origins of the people of God, the birth of the nation of Israel, and their place in God's redemptive plan.
PART 3: PROPHETS, PRIESTS, & KINGS
Wednesday Mornings from 9:30-11:30am | August 28th - May 21st, 2025

Precept Bible Studies
Precept Upon Precept is an inductive Bible study method designed to take you deep into the text and discover truth for yourself.
Isaiah - Part One
You are about to study the crown jewel of Old Testament prophets, a book that strikes awe in the heart of its reader. The words of Isaiah were often found on the lips of the Christ, the Messiah prophesied in Isaiah. Think then, if Jesus, God incarnate, honored this grand and glorious book so highly, how we ought to do the same. In its 66 chapters lies the destiny of nations, the future of all mankind . . . including yours and mine.
The workbook can be purchased here.
Exodus
Watch Moses develop as a leader. See God deliver His people by judging their enemies. Learn powerful truths about His ways. A remarkably practical study of deliverance, redemption, the Law, and the Tabernacle.
