TUESDAY NIGHT WOMEN'S BIBLE STUDY
- Beth Moore's "The Patriarchs"
June
8 - August 10
6:30
PM in the downstairs Youth Center
"The Patriarchs:
Encountering the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob" by
Beth Moore
is a women's Bible study of Genesis 12-50. Discover God's pursuit of a
relationship with man, and marvel as His plan to bless all people unfolds.
Full of twists and turns, ruin and redemption, revelation and mystery this
Bible study keeps participants captivated by the God who stars in it!
Explore concepts such as blessing, covenant, and promise, and the bearing
each has on a New Testament believer’s life today. Group members will also
study the Hebrew names of God introduced on the early pages of Scripture.
Participants will plunge into the heart of Genesis, to God’s remarkable
pursuit of relationship and to the unfolding of His earthly plan: that
through one nation—and ultimately, one man—all people on earth will be
blessed. Many of the most profound and enduring concepts in the whole
counsel of God’s Word are initiated in this marvelous book of beginnings.
10 weeks; homework. Member book: $15.
Sign up in
the church office or by calling Joneen Fries at 776-4432.
