GROW >> Bible Study, Immersion—JOHN

 
 


 

Wednesdays, 7:00–8:00 P.M., on Zoom

It’s time to get back into the Gospels with John.  Last year some church folks jumped in with Rev. Emily to study the Gospel of Matthew.  We had such a blast that we kept going through Luke and Mark.  These discussions never cease to surprise us as we find new things in old texts.  Each study we’ve had a few new folks jump in.  The Gospel of John is the most unique of the Gospels.  It has many stories that don’t show up in any other Gospel.  If you haven’t already read ahead, you’ll be very surprised by the Christmas narrative!  If you’re curious and want a chance to really ask your questions, join us on Wednesday evenings.  We’ll gather on Zoom from 6:30–7:00 P.M. for fellowship and discussion from 7:00–8:00 P.M.Scroll down for the Reading Schedule.

From the Amazon Web Site:
"Journey inside the pages of Scripture to meet a personal God who enters individual lives and begins a creative work from the inside out.  Shaped with the individual in mind, Immersion encourages simultaneous engagement both with the Word of God and with the God of the Word to become a new creation in Christ.

"Immersion, inspired by a fresh translation—the Common English Bible—stands firmly on Scripture and helps readers explore the emotional, spiritual, and intellectual needs of their personal faith. More importantly, they’ll be able to discover God’s revelation through readings and reflections."
