The Prophets (Big Picture Bible Study)

Francis Schaeffer once wrote a book entitled “He Is There and He Is Not Silent”. That description of God could not be more accurate during a very dark time in His people’s history. After God gave the Israelites what they requested – a king – they soon found out that a human king could never solve the real problems they faced. They didn’t need a king; they needed a Savior. Amid their moral decay and hopelessness, God did not sit by passively. Instead, He sent prophet after prophet to remind the people of His steadfast love for them and that it was never too late for them to turn back to Him. In this 6-week series, we’ll dive into the prophetic books of the Bible to examine how God responds to our sin and how we can develop eyes to see Him even when all hope seems lost. This class is offered at two separate times: Online - Mondays at 7 p.m. beginning October 16 (no class 11/6 or 11/20) In Person - Thursdays at 10 a.m. beginning October 19 (no class 11/9 or 11/23) *Participants can also opt to receive the class recordings rather than attend the live classes.NOTE: The Big Picture Bible Study is an in-depth, chronological study of the whole Bible. In its entirety, it comprises 10 separate studies spread out over a two-year time frame. "The Prophets" is the fifth study in the series, but new students will get caught up in the first week.

Habits of the Household

It can feel challenging to start a new habit. With so much on our plates, the demanding nature of the urgent often drowns out what we know is important. This is often the case with habits surrounding our spiritual growth. In our upcoming book study, we will discuss ways in which we can set up our homes with God in the center, as the focus of our everyday lives, using already-existing rhythms and habits (think: mealtime, screentime, bedtime) but infusing them with new meaning.We will walk through the book "Habits of the Household" by Justin Whitmel Earley over the course of three months, meeting once a month to discuss and then practice a variety of spiritual habits focused on family life. We will troubleshoot problems together, share ideas, and celebrate wins as we work to bring our homes closer to God. These meetings will run concurrent with the 9:30 am in-person service. While some parts of the book focus on households with children (of all ages), this book is a great resource for anyone living in a household with others. So grab a copy of the book from wherever you'd like (although we'd recommend The Grounds), and join us at the first meeting to dive in.Meeting dates: September 10 October 8 November 12 December 10 NOTE: Class recordings will not be available for this class.
