Bible
Studies at Good Shepherd
You are invited and welcome to join any of the bible
studies at Good Shepherd at any time even if, especially
if, you've never studied the bible before. The discussions
are both deep and practical; they make you think and yet they
are easy to follow and apply to your daily life. The Bible
was written by human beings long ago but it was inspired by
an eternal God and intended to last forever. That means that
when you read the bible you are reading God's word not only
to people who lived in the past, but you are also reading
God's word to you. Knowing the Bible is the best way to know
and understand the heart of God. It can and will transform
your life. Come and see.
TUESDAY MORNING BIBLE STUDY: This Study meets
at 9:00am in the parish
library after Morning Prayer in the sanctuary
(which begins at 8:30).
This fall the
group will begin a trek through the New Testament letters,
beginning with Jude and ending with Paul's letter to the Romans.
Why read other people's mail? These letters were not only
written to specific people and churches in a particular time,
they were inspired by God for all people of all time. Come
see what God is telling you. This
bible study is open to anyone and everyone, so please feel
free to join right in.
