MIDWEEK Bible Study

Begins January 15

See How God Reveals Himself Through Scripture

A Study of Genesis 1-11 by Jen Wilkin

Facilitated by Joyce Simpson 

Wednesdays at 9 am, Parlor, Cost: $15

It all began with the Word.

The opening chapters of Genesis teach us fundamental truths about God. We watch Him bring light after darkness, order after chaos, and rest after toil—all through the power of His Word.

Verse-by-verse study, we will dive into Genesis 1-11 by following three critical stages of understanding: comprehension, interpretation, and application. As God reveals Himself through Scripture, we can only begin to understand ourselves when we first glimpse the character, attributes, and promises of our Creator.

The Gospel of Mark by Lisa Harper

Facilitated by Beth Smith

Wednesdays at 6 pm, Room 303 Cost: $15

Throughout his account, Mark unveils a Jesus of unparalleled power and authority but also a Jesus of humility and love. And while this Jesus invites each of us into a greater story through His teachings, He demands we come as active participants. We must acknowledge Him, seek salvation in Him, and follow Him wherever He leads.

In The Gospel of Mark, you'll follow Jesus through His days of early ministry to the cross and discover what it means to be the recipients of His overflowing compassion and the very reason for His all-consuming passion.

Unglued: Making Wise Choices in the Midst of Raw Emotions by Lysa TerKeurst

Facilitated by Sarah Vick and Ashley Conte

Wednesdays at 6 pm, Room 300 Cost: $10

Do you ever feel like your emotions are working against you? Though we may find ourselves stuffing down emotions, exploding with emotions, or reacting somewhere in between, Lysa TerKeurst assures us it’s possible to make our emotions work for us.

God gave us emotions to experience life, not destroy it. With gut-honest personal examples and biblical teaching, Lysa shows us how to use our emotions for good.

 Unglued will equip you to:

* Know with confidence how to resolve conflict in your important relationships. 
* Find peace in your most difficult relationships as you learn to be honest but kind when offended. 
* Identify what type of reactor you are and how to significantly improve your communication. 
* Respond with no regrets by managing your tendencies to stuff, explode, or react somewhere in between. 
* Gain a deep sense of calm by responding to situations out of your control without acting out of control.
