Attention Childress Folks!
I am pleased to announce that we will begin a new Bible study on Tuesdays, beginning September 7th. It will be held in the Fellowship Hall at First United Methodist Church at 6pm.
It will be the new Beth Moore DVD series. It's entitled, "Here and Now... There and Then: A Lecture Series on Revelation" It is wonderful!
For those of you who think you do not have time for a Beth Moore Study, let me assure you that this is a "Lecture Series", not her usual, involved "Bible study". If you are familiar with her format, you know that there is usually about 5 days worth of homework, and about 2 hours at church each week as we review and talk about the homework, then watch the video.
Since this is a lecture series, there is only a very thin book for note taking and maybe one day's worth of personal reflection. There will be no discussion, since there is no homework, other than personal reflection. So, this will cut down on about 45 min of our time. (Unless people would like to stay after and talk about what we just heard.)
Here is what her website says about it.... "Here and Now...There and Then by Beth Moore is a lecture series on the book of Revelation. Beth presents many points of view, allowing people to decide for themselves when the interpretation varies among scholars. She teaches that God is as specific about what He does reveal as He is about what He does not reveal. Each of the 11 sessions is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. The set includes 11 DVDs and one listening guide with light homework."
Also, we are opening this study up for men too! After all, everyone needs a fresh revelation! Although, it's true, Beth's studies are geared toward women, I have watched the entire series, and there is nothing really gender specific in it. There is no reason to exclude our men! Josh is the one who gave me the idea for this. He's signed up along with his father, Chris. We also have a few other men signed up so far. So, ladies, bring your man! Let's have the Lord reveal Himself to us together!
No excuses! My vision is to bring people of all denominations together to study the Word as One Body of Christ, in order to unite our community. What better way, than to come to this inter-denominational study!
If you are interested, let me know so I can order you a book!
In Christ, we Live, Breathe, and Serve,
Karin Johnson
