Our Bible courses will give you the opportunity to learn in community as we read entire books of the Bible line-by-line, and in the process you will discover how to comprehend the facts, accurately interpret the passage in context, and then apply it to your own life. So not only will you increase your biblical literacy, you will also develop the skills and tools needed to faithfully interact with and discern God’s Word on your own. Through our Bible Courses, we want to help make understanding Scripture and theology accessible for every believer in our church.

This Semester’s Bible Course
THE BOOK OF PHILIPPIANS
In-Person
In this 8-week course, we will study the book of Philippians. This letter invites us into the advancement of the gospel by pointing us to Christ, both in the present and forevermore. Paul encourages his audience to understand that life in Christ is a life of joy; this activity is an essential quality to the Christian life. And through Paul’s instruction on a Christ-centered life, we will be able to better understand and apply what he means by “to live is Christ; to die is gain”. There will be three main parts to this course: personal study, discussion, and lecture. In our books you will find two different sets of questions. One dives deep into the text in a traditional inductive way; the second has fewer questions so is more doable for those who are in a busy season or someone new to this type of study. But, both structures allow us to go line-by-line to truly understand and apply the text to our walk with God.
