Monday Morning Bible Study

Grumpy Old Men - The Minor(?) Prophets with Pastor Kevin
Mondays, Beginning February 3 | 9:30 am | Room 200 & Zoom
Monday morning bible study resumes with a 12 week series on prophets you may not know. Even though the Minor Prophets are some of the least read books of Scripture, they are also some of the richest. These voices declare God’s glory by witnessing to God’s steadfast love and mercy. They demonstrate God’s holiness in God’s intense anger toward sin. They proclaim a humanity created to live in harmony and justice.

Contemplative Christianity

Contemplative Christianity

Sundays | 9:45 am | Room 202
Contemplative Christian practice quiets the mind to allow for the experience of God’s presence in that moment and (eventually) in every aspect of life. Our Contemplative Christianity class offers the opportunity for group study, discussion, and experience of this ancient-yet-modern Christian approach to knowing God. We share a group reading and discussion, often accompanied by a practice opportunity.

Janis Claflin facilitates the class and is happy to answer questions, 512-657-5498, jcforpeace@gmail.com.
