Group 2: Galatians Bible Study
Join us as we explore Paul's letter to the Galatians! If someone asked you to explain the good news of the Christian faith, what would you say? Writing to the church of Galatia, Paul provides one of the clearest explanations of the gospel (literally translated as "good news") in the New Testament. This discussion-based Bible study is aimed at helping Christians apply the teachings found within the book of Galatians to their everyday lives.
Leader: Stephanie Lauback and James Meersman
Day and Time: Thursday nights from 8:00 to 9:00 PM at 1624 Mifflin St.

Group 3: "FLOW: For the Life Of the World"
Flow will explore the application of questions like: What is our faith for? Why does living our our faith matter? What does it mean to be steward? And how do we steward well? We will be using a combination of activities, films, conversations, and digging into Scripture to explore together how cultivating a more rooted and robust understanding of stewardship may change how we engage our faith, relationships, time, the world, and the whole of our lives in light of the Gospel.
Leaders: Dani Erdley and Adrienne Willhoft
Day and Time: Wednesdays at 8:00 PM, in the World Language Center Lounge
