2024 Fall Studies

Sunday Evenings

Women in the Church

Sunday evenings, beginning September 8^th, 5-6:30 p.m, fellowship hall: We will have six weeks of study sessions to explore the role of women in the church. Our primary resource will be the book “Women in the Church” by Andreas Kostenberger and Thomas Schreiner, along with the Danvers Statement and local church traditions. Book purchase is optional. Each session will include a presentation followed by group discussions. Women in the church is a significant topic, and I plan to handle it in a way that honors God and his Word. I hold my position with boldness, but I recognize that there are good Christian women with differing views and opinions.

Wednesday Evenings

The Life and Theology of Paul

On Wednesday evening, September 4^th, 6-7:30, in W123, we kick off a two-week stand alone class that provides an overview of the life and theology of the Apostle Paul.
