BIBLE STUDIES
Faith Builders – A community-wide Bible study for women of all ages and stages of faith
Plan now to attend Beth Moore’s compelling DVD study David – Seeking a Heart Like His. Beth says “David’s life at times will cause you to have many responses, but boredom will not be one of them! He is sure to capture your interest, if you let him. And God is sure to change your heart, if you let Him.”
Faith Builders emphasizes learning scripture, applying biblical truths and fellowship. Meeting time: Thursday, 9:15 to 11:00am in the Gathering Place. Childcare is provided
Evening Edition Faith Builders…can’t make Thursday mornings? Faith Builders offers the same program Wednesday evenings, 7 – 9pm in the church Parlor. Childcare is not provided.
Register for Faith Builders or Evening Edition Faith Builders with Cinda at csiligmueller@firstpresge.org. Cost: $30 which includes workbook.
Tuesday Bible Study is a group of women who meet weekly to support one another through prayer and study of the Bible in a friendly atmosphere. The study is the book of Acts using commentaries of our own individual choice. The group meets 6:30am in the Parlor. Contact person: Susan Kirby
Wednesday Morning Women’s Bible Study
Meets on Wednesdays, at 6:30 a.m. in the Parlor. The Wednesday Morning Women’s Bible Study will begin a study of Colossians by listening to the 4 chapters of the book on audio tape. This gives us a good overview of what this epistle is all about, and then we’ll begin our study of Colossians chapter 1 on that day.
Our study is an informal self-lead discussion using Biblical commentaries of our individual choice. There are even commentaries available on-line these days! It’s always interesting to see what the different versions of the Bible say and also how the commentators may differ in their interpretations of Scriptural passages. Though we take our study seriously, we also greatly enjoy our time of fellowship, laughter, sharing, and prayer in a comfortable, relaxed setting. We were blessed with four new members this fall as we entered our study of Ephesians, and it seems the “reviews” are good – they keep coming back! They have quickly become part of us and seem to think this is worth getting up very early on Wednesday mornings. We would love to welcome additional new members as we begin this study of Colossians. Contact Marty Dome 630-858-7365 or Barb Gosselar 630-370-1467 for further information if needed.
Wednesday Bible Study meets for the primary purpose of engaging in an in-depth study of the Bible using commentaries of own individual choice.
