Bible Studies

About Our Bible Studies

We embrace the membership vow of Presence, especially in the atmosphere of small groups and classes.  God instilled in us the desire to belong.  Evening classes and Sunday School are ways to feel connected and grow in your faith.  Studying the bible in a small group is an effective way to grow your relationship closer to Christ, while at the same time getting connected with your church family. Please contact Andrea Vrtikapa, Congregational Connector, for more information.

You’re Not A Failure: My Teen Doesn’t Like Me Either Study

Wednesdays | 6:30 PM | Weekly | Room A854 FLC | Starting Jan 22
Join Paula Coker-Jones on Wednesdays, starting January 22, from 6:30-8:00 PM as she facilitates the study, You’re Not A Failure: My Teen Doesn’t Like Me Either by Whitney Fleming in Room 854.

Stay connected through the tween and teen years, feel less alone, and tackle today’s toughest parenting issues. There’s no perfect guidebook for parenting tweens and teens because there is no one-size-fits-all approach that actually works when it comes to raising kids. Each parent-child dynamic is different, and each adolescent has a unique personality and challenges all their own. But mostly, raising adolescents means parents will learn about themselves ― the good, the bad, and the ugly. With this book, you can flip the narrative about raising teenagers by taking control of your emotions and responses to create a loving, supportive relationship. Books are available in the church office or in the classroom for $20 each.

Creed Bible Study

Tuesdays | 9:30 AM | Weekly | Room 842 FLC
We’re all searching. Sometimes the search is easy: simply type a question and the answer pops up. But sometimes our questions are complicated, and the answers are difficult to see and harder to articulate.

How do we discover and examine the truths that give meaning and purpose to life? Adam Hamilton believes that some powerful answers are contained in the Apostles’ Creed, an early statement of foundational Christian beliefs. In this six-week study, Hamilton considers important questions of life, reality, and truth. He explores not only what Christians believe, but also why they believe it and why it matters. Books will be available in the classroom for $17 each. Books will be available in the church office and in the classroom for $10 each
