Christian Education

Christian Education – October 17, 2021 – Evangelism – Part 1 October 17, 2021

This Sunday we begin a new series on the topic of Evangelism. We’ll talk first about what evangelism is and then we’ll discuss why we should do it. We’ll look at some examples of evangelism in the scriptures and the Great Commission in Matthew 28. We will ultimately talk tactics, different ways to do it without dying of embarrassment.

Bible Studies

Tuesday Morning Bible Study – The Minor Prophets, Micah, Part 2 October 12, 2021

This Tuesday we pick up our study of the minor prophets with the book of Micah, in Chapter 1.  Micah was sent by God to preach to three kings of Judah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah. The prevailing sin of Judah and her rulers was always to look for help from other nations and their gods rather than YHWH. As is always the case, their hope in these things proves empty and proved to be their undoing. Each of us also tends to seek life in things that and people who cannot give it so the words of Micah and the prophets can and should serve to spur us to Jesus who came to break the chains that we make for ourselves and to give us the life we look for elsewhere but cannot find in any but Him.
