Women's Bible Study -7 Feasts: Finding Christ in the Sacred Celebrations of the Old Testament by Erin Davis, Thursday 9:30 - 11:30 am.
Open
What's the story behind all those feasts?
It's hard to know when you read about the Feasts of Booths why exactly it matters for your life. What in the world is the Feast of Trumpets supposed to be teaching you? And in this case the text itself doesn't tell you. You need a resource, a guide that can help you understand the cultural significance and how these feasts relate to the rest of the bible.
We'll learn :
- The significance of these feasts and why God wanted His people to celebrate
- How each of them point to Jesus and His work in redemption
- Why all of this matters for our lives today.
Group DetailsThe Meaning of Marriage draws a portrait of marriage that neither idealizes nor rejects the institution but points us to the relationship between God and man.
The result is a vision for marriage that is refreshingly frank and unsentimental - yet hopeful, beautiful, and relevant for thoughtful believers and non-believers alike.
This study is for anyone from singles, to couples considering marriage, to those who are newly married or have been married for a long time.
Please purchase the study guide, the book is optional not required. The length of this study will be 7 weeks.

RPM is an inviting place where moms can gather and walk alongside each other during this "adventure" of life we call motherhood. Meanwhile, your infants through kindergarten kids will be lovingly cared for in our Children's Ministry downstairs, where they will experience rotating stations to keep them occupied and happy while you socialize with other moms upstairs.

Group DetailsWomen's Bible Study -Thursdays 6:30-8:15 pm on Zoom - 1, 2, 3 John and Jude by John MacArthur: Established by truth…..Marked by Love
Open
In the face of false teachings about Jesus, the apostle John took a direct approach. "I heard Jesus speak," he wrote. "I saw him . . . I even touched him." Just as we would write about someone we knew and loved, John told the early believers the truth about the Savior. But he didn't let them off the hook without an examination of their lives.
Pastor John MacArthur will take you through these short but impactful letters, passage by passage, so that you can better understand their message of forgiveness, how to uphold a biblical faith, and the real dangers of spiritual warfare. John was not alone in his concern about the influence of false teachers in the early church. Jude, a half-brother of Christ, also wrote to the believers. In his letter, he firmly urged all believers to fight for truth, and encouraged all followers of Jesus to stand firm in the faith.
