The Adult Bible Study Group will be wrapping up its study of 2 Corinthians on November 17 and 19. The following Sunday will be a break from study, and Bible Study will reconvene on December 1, the first Sunday of Advent with Walter Brueggemann’s “Names for the Messiah.” This study will last through the four Sundays of Advent (or the Tuesdays after, if you are with the Tuesday morning Bible Study).
This study focuses on the names of the Messiah spelled out in Isaiah 9:6, a passage made famous in Handel’s Messiah: Wonderful Counselor (Handel put a comma between these two, but there is none), Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. We will study each of these names of the Messiah separately during the Sundays of Advent.
Once Advent is finished, we will start a study of the catechisms, creeds and confessions recognized by the Presbyterian Church (USA) in the new year. Bible Study is available through Zoom on either Sunday or Tuesday. The Sunday group is both in person and by Zoom and the Tuesday study is by Zoom. If you are interested in attending either class, reach out to the office for the Zoom information or talk to Eileen O or Pastor Rob.
