Adult Bible Study

Join retired pastor, Bob Johnson, and West Campus member, Jaime Milne, as they lead us in learning and applying the SWAP method of Bible study. SWAP stands for Scripture, What, Apply, and Prayer. Each week during September we will read the scripture for that week’s sermon. Then we will learn how to hear what it says, and how to apply its message to our lives. We will close by praying that God will help us apply what we have just heard. The SWAP Bible study method can be applied to any scripture and thus can help you beyond this class. We will meet for four weeks beginning Sunday, September 4th, at 10:30 in the portable at the West Campus.

In this verse-by-verse study of the Book of Hebrews, Jen Wilkin explores how God “provided something better for us” in the person of Jesus Christ (Heb. 11:40). Through stories of Old Testament heroes and practices, the author of Hebrews demonstrates how the new covenant is superior to the old and how Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of every promise. Explore familiar verses in context of the entire Bible, learning how to place your hope and faith in Christ alone. This study begins February 6th at Kingsland and February 8th at West.

Now That Faith Has Come -

A Study of Galatians

Join Sisters in Christ as we learn from Beth and Melissa Moore in Now That Faith Has Come for a six-week deep dive into Paul’s captivating letter to the Galatians. Come to know the letter’s original recipients. Study its original context and embrace its timeless relevance. Discover—or perhaps rediscover—what makes the gospel of Jesus Christ revolutionary to those who choose to believe. Find out how everything has changed, now that faith has come.

The Tuesday Bible Study will begin meeting in person on Tuesday, Jan. 17, at 9:30 a.m. This group is open to men and women. Our first study is “Short Stories by Jesus” by Amy-Jill Levine, in which we will discuss some of Jesus’ parables from a first-century Jewish perspective. Levine uses this perspective to interpret these stories for contemporary readers, showing how the parables are not just about Jesus, but are also about us. Please purchase the Participant Guide to “Short Stories by Jesus.” We will discuss the Introduction and Chapter 1 at our first meeting on Jan. 17.

We dig deeper into God’s word and develop a deeper relationship with Jesus through inductive study: What does the Bible say? What does it mean? How should I apply it to my life? Individual study takes about 10 minutes per day then we gather via Zoom to share our insights into the scripture in a facilitated discussion. We will begin a study of The Revelation to John on September 11, 2022 using “Engaging God’s Word: Revelation” available on Amazon and christianbook.com.
