What we are studying this year:

1 & 2 Thessalonians (an Engage Study - 6 weeks) What will happen when Jesus comes again? What happens when people die? Are these the “end times”? The apostle Paul wrote two letters to the Thessalonians to settle their hearts and minds, and to guide them in confusing times. In this six-lesson study you will learn how to walk in a manner worthy of Christ that will give you confidence when He returns.

Experiencing God - Knowing & Doing the Will of God  by Henry, Richard, & Mike Blackaby and Claude V. King (12 weeks)  Over the years God has used the truths of Experiencing God to awaken believers to a radically God-centered way of life. As a result, millions have come to know God intimately, to recognize His voice, and to understand His will for their lives. God is inviting you to experience Him in an intimate love relationship through which he reveals to you His will, His ways, and His work.

The Epic of Eden, Isaiah by Sandra L. Richter (10 weeks)

Often named "the fifth gospel," the book of the prophet Isaiah has more to say about Israel's coming Messiah than any other Old Testament book. Brilliant, courageous, uncompromising, this prophet declared that "the year of the LORD" had come and God's people needed to either step up or stand down. Indeed, when Isaiah spoke, kings trembled. But too often, when Isaiah speaks today, God's people have trouble hearing. Why? We often miss the larger context. In The Epic of Eden: Isaiah, Dr. Sandra Richter takes participants back to the eighth century BCE. This ten-week study explains Israel's religion and economy, explores the definition and role of the prophets, and helps us to apply the message of this great champion of the faith to our lives today.
