2025 Winter/Spring Studies

No Empty Word: Relentless Pursuit, a Study on Hosea
by Paula Miles

registration opens December 4; study begins January 14, 2025

Persistent, incessant, unwavering, and persevering—relentless. Filled with shocking language and uncomfortable spiritual realities, the book of Hosea is the graphic story of our holy God’s deep love, relentless pursuit, and transformation of his faithless and sinful people. With plot twists expected in a romantic movie, God called the prophet Hosea to marry and love the unfaithful prostitute, Gomer, to live out the reality of God’s relationship with Israel—and us.

Bible teacher Paula Miles guides readers through a “behind-the-scenes” study of the prophet’s dramatic story and our place within it. Experience the relentless pursuit of the Lord.

 

Divine Design Discipleship: God’s Living and Active Word

Do you desire a deeper, more consistent connection with the Lord? If so, this new teaching will provide you with biblical instruction and practical application to: 

· Develop a love and excitement for God’s Word as you encounter more of its living power 

· Get to know the God of the Bible vs. merely knowing more about the Bible 

· Experience the wonder of the Holy Spirit applying the Word personally to your life  

· Learn to take your devotional time from routine to rich and relational  

· Discover a wide variety of ways to engage with the Lord through His Word

  • The Good, the Bad and the Ugly of Work: Reimagined and Redeemed
    with Robby Holt

    REGISTER

    The study is from 12:00 – 1:00 in the Fellowship Hall. Lunch will be available beginning at 11:30, and oxed lunches will be available for pick up for anyone coming from 12:00 – 1:00.

    We will look at the meta-narrative of Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Consummation, considering the different aspects of the work we are engaged in and how we see the hope and promise of the gospel in the work we are doing. Please invite friends and co-workers to join us for this study.

    Robby will be guiding our discussions, and we will use chapters from the book Whatever You Do (Six Foundations) for an Integrated Life. This book will be provided when you register for the study.

    The book, materials, and lunch are $40.00. If you will not be eating lunch the cost of the study is $10.00.

    Please register by March 27 so we can order books and create discussion groups.
