Invitation to John Bible Study

,

bible studyAre you interested in an in-depth Bible Study?  This fall Pastor Catherine Neelly Burton invites you to join her for “Invitation to John.”  This is a 12-week course through the Gospel of John.  It is part of the Disciple Curriculum and is similar to the “Invitation to Psalms” that was offered in 2016.  It is a study that emphasizes knowledge and faith formation.

Participants who engage in this study gain knowledge and confidence about the Bible. This Bible study requires a high commitment and won’t be for everyone.  The commitment is a weekly class of one hour and fifteen minutes and a couple of hours of homework a week.  It is fine to miss a class on occasion, but you need to make at least 75% of the classes.

Materials for the class are a study Bible and study guide. The guides may be purchased at Grace for $15, and you may also buy a study Bible from Grace for $25, or you may use one you already have.  A kindle version of the book is available through Amazon.

The classes meet on Tuesdays at 10 am or Wednesdays at 6 pm.  Classes begin the week of August 26 with an overview session. Look for more information on a bulletin board at church, in Grace this Week, or by calling Catherine, 684-5215. Childcare is available for class upon request.
