SUNDAY CONNECT GROUP STUDIES (Aug-Oct)

Ephesians presents the gospel’s transformative power and God’s eternal plan to unite all things in Christ. Paul explains believers’ spiritual blessings, salvation by grace, and their identity as God’s people. The letter emphasizes the unity of the church, spiritual maturity, and living in a manner worthy of Christ. Practical instruction addresses relationships, family life, and spiritual warfare. Ephesians calls believers to grow in faith, walk in love, and stand firm in God’s strength.

WEDNESDAY SUMMER SERIES

Our mid-week Bible studies are intergenerational and cover a variety of textual and topical studies. Join us each Wednesday night for Bible study at 7PM.

Deuteronomy:  Wisdom for Life & Faith –  Auditorium   – James Browning

Scholars often call Deuteronomy the “Romans of the Old Testament” because of its foundational teachings on ethics, law, and grace. In this class, we will first explore how New Testament authors understood Deuteronomy—and the law as a whole—under the New Covenant. Then, we will turn our attention to understanding how Deuteronomy can help shape our worldview by studying the historical context, literary design, and wisdom of the book.

Parenting – Echo Room – Brent Gaddes

Raising children in today’s world can feel overwhelming—but God has not left parents without guidance. This class offers encouragement, practical insight, and biblical wisdom for parents and future parents of children of all ages. Together, we’ll explore building a strong family foundation, setting Godly priorities, teaching children faithfully, and handling outside influences, with lessons from fathers who have walked the path of parenting.

A New Day: A 12 Step Christ Centered Class –  201-A  –  David Hargett

This class is a supportive fellowship where men and women come together to apply the spiritual principles of the Twelve Steps in their daily lives. The goal is to deepen our spiritual connections with God, with others, and with ourselves. By sharing and practicing these principles, we seek personal growth and healing within a safe and respectful environment.

Prayer  –  206-A – Andrew Itson, Ronnie Missildine

Prayer is more than a spiritual discipline—it is the lifeline of every believer and the heartbeat of a healthy church. In this class, we will explore what the Bible teaches about prayer through the lives of men and women who sought God in
seasons of joy, suffering, uncertainty, confession, and spiritual battle. Together we will learn how to pray through difficult circumstances, trust God when His answers are delayed or different than we expect, seek His guidance, engage in
spiritual warfare, and cultivate a culture of prayer within our church. Each session combines biblical teaching, personal testimonies, practical application, and opportunities to pray together, equipping participants to grow in confidence,
intimacy, and dependence on God through prayer.

Evangelism Using God’s Creation  –  201 –  Mike Houts

Romans 1:20 tells us “For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.” This class will explore ways we can use God’s creation to evangelize and strengthen the faith of those around us. We will also examine the extensive evidence that God has given us through His creation.
