Everyone is encouraged to participate in one of our small
group Bible Studies (or just “small groups” for short). Small
groups generally meet once a week for one and a half hours, and have a discussion format. They are typically facilitated by a fellow grad student. Small groups are an excellent avenue through which to discover the truth in God's Word and how it applies to our lives. They are also a great way to make lasting friendships.
We welcome you to try one out. If you would like to be in a small group Bible study or if you would like more details, just contact one of the small group leaders. For any and all other questions contact Melodie Marske.
***PLEASE NOTE: These listings are from 2007-2008; small group information will be updated in the near future for the coming year - thank you***
Requires several hours of outside reading every week in addition to the
weekly meeting time. Uses scholarly and historical commentary to aid in
interpretation. Currently Studying Genesis with the aid of Leon Kass's book *The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis*. Each week we will read sections from Genesis and Kass and an article or sermon from another writer, which will vary over the course of the study. More resources for this Bible study can be found at biblestudy.definingterms.com.
Starting May 6th, the Tuesday-night Bible Study will begin studying the book of Daniel. The Book of Daniel was written during the exile of Judah in Babylon after the fall of Jerusalem ~592 BC, during the reign of King Nebuchadnezzar. It's focus is on the acts of one of the exiled prophets, Daniel, who rose to high standing in the king's house. A very rich book, it contains powerful stories of faith (e.g. Daniel in the Lion's Den, God's Protection in the Fiery Furnace), divinely-inspired interpretation of dreams, and also visions of the world yet to come and the Final Judgment.
