Elmwood Young Adults Bible Study The Elmwood Young Adult group meets the first and third Friday evenings from 6:00 - 8:30 p.m. for a time of fellowship, Bible Study, discussion and prayer. Our first meeting will be on FRIDAY, October 21st.
This year, we will be meeting at the various homes of our group members. Please call the church office to find out where we are meeting. We will be doing a study based on Bill Hybel’s book, “The Power of a Whisper: Hearing God, Having the Guts to Respond.”
“Using real-life experiences, Hybels reveals the attitudes and actions that helped him hear directly from God when facing challenges. You'll learn how to listen for whispers that determine choices, nudges that rescue us from despair, promptings that spur growth, urgings that come from others, and inspiration that reveals the terrible plight of people aound the globe.” For further information, please contact Pastor Fred at the church office.
Elmwood Women's Bible Study
"Breaking Free: The Journey, The Stories”
Please join us for this in-depth women's Bible study by Beth Moore which draws parallels between the captive Israelites of the Old Testament and New Testament believers in Jesus as the Promised Messiah. Beth looks at the Book of Isaiah through the lives of the kings who ruled during the prophet's ministry. These kings exemplify many of the obstacles to freedom with which we must deal. Using Scripture to help identify spiritual strongholds in your life, no matter how big or small, Beth explains that anything that hinders us from the benefits of knowing God is bondage.
Classes begin on Tuesday evening September 6 and will run through November 15.
We meet in the Fireside Room at Elmwood each Tuesday at 6:30 p.m.
Elmwood Seniors' Bible Study Please come and join us anytime!
