Bible Study - Christian Believer

"Knowing God With Heart and Mind"

Do You Hunger for a better understanding of the Word of God and desire a deeper fellowship through prayer and study with other Christians? Based on the small group model of Jesus and the 12 disciples, this nine-month exploration of the scriptures is aimed at developing strong Christian leaders using trained teachers.

The Course

Christian Believer is a 30-week study integrating the Bible with the basic beliefs of the Christian faith. The goal of the Christian Believer is to make available the substance of the Christian faith that the church has confessed through its long history as a way of connecting to God and living faithfully.

With the Bible as the primary text, the two-hour sessions consist of a 20-minute video presented by a Bible scholar along with a group discussion. A daily commitment of 30-45 minutes of personal Bible study is required of each participant. Seasonal breaks are arranged during holidays. Graduates receive a certificate from their church.

This course is split up typically on Tuesdays and Thursdays with one day at our church and another day at one of the other participating United Methodist Churches. Classes begin in September of each year if there is sufficient interest. Participants must register in advance.

There is a per person fee of $40 to cover cost of materials for the 30-week course.
