Adult, THE STRONGHOLD OF THE CHOSEN: An Interactive Bible Study, Season 5,  Led by Brian and Heidi Chaplin in Room #119 (5th Grade Room)

 

A Bible study for people who need a safe place in Jesus, The Stronghold of the Chosen helps readers see Him as the refuge we desperately need.

​

What is a stronghold?

​

Well, a stronghold is a place of safety, fortified to protect inhabitants against attack. It’s a place where people can feel secure, surrounded by high, sturdy walls. It’s a place to rest and be restored. It’s a place to plan the way forward.

It’s a place.

​

Throughout the Bible, we’re told that God is the Stronghold for those who follow Jesus, that He’s our refuge in hard times and that in His presence our resources can be renewed.

But sometimes we resist running to Jesus. Like the crowds on that first Palm Sunday, we vacillate between declaring Him Hosanna ("the One who saves") and forfeiting the very safety and security He graciously provides. 

​

In The Stronghold of the Chosen, the season 5 Bible study, we’ll learn that Jesus is our safe place, along with all the reasons we should run to and remain in Him when hard times come.  Join the Chaplins for this Bible study beginning October 19.

Adult, A TIME TO LAUGH …OR CRY: An Overview of the Old Testament from Genesis to Malachi with Eric Riethmeier, in

Room #203 (6th Grade Room)

What a delight it is to laugh and laugh hard.  What a relief it is to cry and cry hard.  A Time to Laugh…or Cry overviews the activity of man in the Old Testament - a time to cry because of mankind’s stubbornness and sin and a time to laugh because of God’s reaction to mankind’s sin expressed in the Messiah.  The thread of the Messiah is followed throughout.  In all lessons, both God and man will laugh and cry.  

Please join us for this overview of the Old Testament.

Junior Youth Bible Study (Students 5th-7th Grade), LAW AND LIFE (The Gospel Project), with Tom McClelland, in the 8th Grade Room (#207)

A Christ-centered, chronological Bible study that will take your students on a journey through the storyline of Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, to see how Christ connects with all of Scripture. Along the way, students will discover the big picture of what God has been doing throughout redemptive history and what it means for them.

 

This quarter experience the story of a God who saves, leads, and never lets go.

​

From freeing Israel from slavery to providing bread from heaven, Yahweh revealed His unmatched power and faithfulness—even when His people grumbled and doubted. And just as God heard their cries, He hears ours. Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, He delivers us from sin and walks with us every step of the journey, shaping us into His people until we finally reach home.
