Christian Education

Christian Education – May 9, 2021 – The 39 Articles, Part 2 May 9, 2021

This week we start our triannual trek through the 39 Articles, the Anglican confession of faith. The Articles are not narrowly focused on Anglican issues, but communicate the Christian faith in basic and broad terms. If you are looking for a “Christianity 101” class, this is it. This week we will continue our discussion, moving from Article 2 and hopefully making it all the way to Article 6. You can read all of the Articles of Religion here.

Bible Studies

Tuesday Morning Bible Study – The Minor Prophets, Joel, Part 2 May 4, 2021

This Tuesday morning, we continued our study of the book of the prophet Joel. We continue in chapter 2 wherein Joel pens these well remembered words, “Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love.” Sin brings devastation, but God never ceases to offer mercy and restoration.

 

Tuesday Morning Bible Study – The Minor Prophets, Joel, Part 1 April 27, 2021

This Tuesday Morning we pick up at verse 8 of Joel 1.  Joel has much to say both about God’s judgment and his determination to redeem and restore what sin has broken.
