"The Way" by Adam Hamilton will be the text for two book studies, beginning the second week of February.  Hamilton says that in this book he focuses on the life and teachings of Jesus.  Let us "hear the familiar stories with fresh ears" by drawing upon insights from history, archaeology, and geography of the Holy Land.  Hopefully, by walking in the foosteps of Jesus, we will strengten our knowledge of Jesus' life, and at the same time deepen our faith in him.  Books are available for $13 at the volunteers' desk.

Tuesday Evening Study begins February 12th at 6:30 p.m.  Wednesday Morning Study begins on February 13th at 9:30 a.m.  Both studies are one hour long. 

The Faithlink Class is composed of adults of varying ages led by Dave Morse.  Our main topics of discussion are provided by a publication called Faithlink, and written by a variety of men and women who are active in the Methodist Church.  There is a new topic each week, consisting of 4 pages. 

The written topic is supplemented at irregular intervals with a series of video presentation called “From Jesus to Constantine, a 24 part series that chronicles the birth and rise of Christianity.  The talks are given by Bart Ehrman, a professor in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.  This has been an enlightening series to date.

The best way to become acquainted with Faithlink is to pick up copies of past topics from the table in the Parlor.  These are yours to read.

The best way to find out if this is a class that you would enjoy being a part of, is to join us at 8:30 any Sunday in the Parlor off the Circle Room.   We may be watching a segment of the video on that day also.

Koininia Class has begun using the Adult Bible Studies which presents information in a theologically sound manner.  The lessons are Bible-based, Christ-focused, and United Methodist-approved curriculum for use in adult Sunday school classes as well as mid-week Bible study and small group studies.

All are welcome to join the class which meets at 10:00 a.m. in the Parlor off the Circle Room.
