Men's Fall Bible Study

Wednesdays at 6:30pm

September 2nd - October 28th

The gospel is not merely the message through which we begin the Christian life - it is the good news that continues to shape every part of our lives. This practical study will help us consider how the grace of Jesus Christ transforms our hearts, our relationships, our struggles with sin, and our daily walk with God. Each lesson includes biblical teaching, personal exercises, and opportunities for honest and meaningful conversation.

Click the image for more information on the book. Please call or stop by the church office to pick up a book. Books are $10 each.


Women's Fall Bible Study

Tuesdays at 10am & Wednesdays at 6:30pm (same class, two opportunities each week)

September 15/16 - October 27/28

Who am I? The question of identity is always in the back of our minds, and it’s currently at the forefront of social conversations. But the first question we need to ask is: Who is God? Then we can begin to consider, And who am I in light of who He is? In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul describes God as a merciful and forgiving Father who unites us in Christ and empowers us to live by the Spirit. We’re adopted children and fellow citizens with the saints because of God’s loving pursuit on our behalf.  

We hope you will join us and maybe even invite a friend!

Questions? Want to sign-up? Contact Sue Miller – 309-781-8231, Kathy Stegmiller – 309-791-1162, or Beth Flickinger – 309-648-1219. Books are $20 each.
