Mid-week Bible Study
Wednesdays, 9:30-11:00 AM
Room C/D
Bring your favorite Bible and delve into the Book of Exodus. The Book of Exodus is the second book of the Bible and a key part of the Pentateuch, the first five books of the Old Testament. It tells the story of the Israelites’ liberation from slavery in Egypt and their journey to Mount Sinai, where they entered into a covenant with God.
The Book of Exodus, a foundational text, offers profound insights into the relationship between God and the Israelites. It brings to light themes of redemption, covenant, and God’s presence, which we will explore in our study.

Saturday Morning Women’s Bible Study 9:00-10:30 AM
Room C/D
|
This transforming six-week study will help people discover an alternative to the roller-coaster experience they may have settled for in their relationship with God. As they consider who the Holy Spirit is, what He’s up to, and how they can experience His power, they will become increasingly aware of God’s presence in their everyday lives. Helpful applications and open-ended questions about the Bible’s primary passages on the Holy Spirit make this an engaging and life-changing study.
