New Studies Begin
February 22 @ 9:30 am - 10:30 am
Join us as we begin a new set of Bible Studies.
Together We Believe – A Study of the Apostles’ Creed
Drawn from the Scriptures, the Apostles’ Creed is a statement of what we, as Christians, believe. Simple, concise, and familiar, the Creed expresses what we know and believe from God’s Word, and is the foundation on which we build our understanding. This study, based on a book by Emily Belvery, examines the three articles of the Creed and how this ancient summary of the Christian faith articulates what we believe. Each lesson considers a portion of the Creed and its biblical foundations, then digs deeper into the meaning of the words to help us connect the text to everyday thoughts and actions. Please bring your Bible and join Tom Naatz in the Assembly Room at 9:30 AM, starting on February 22nd.

Isaiah (The Lord Saves)
Scripture from the book of Isaiah is often read throughout the year at worship services. This class explores those verses, and many more, that point to our Lord and Savior Jesus who rescues us from our sin. The guide for this Bible study is “Thru the Eyes of Isaiah” by the Rev. Victor G. Albers from Lutheran Bible Ministries. The Rev. Albers’ notes that “Isaiah is the Old Testament book most frequently quoted in the New Testament, and Isaiah the person “is often called the Evangelist of the Old Testament.” Some commentators refer to this book as the Mini-Bible. The name ‘Isaiah’ alone, meaning “Yahweh is salvation”, is enough to capture the interest of students and theologians alike. The 66 chapters of Isaiah touch on so many topics from creation to history to prophecy and much more. Shake it up and mix it about and what emerges is hope in the ‘Holy One of Israel’ who will redeem His people. For history enthusiasts we will depend on Old Testament History , Charles F. Pfeiffer, and other authoritative sources. Martin Luther confidently states that “he prepares and disposes them to expect the coming kingdom of Christ.” Isaiah also records the heartbreaking fall of the kingdoms with incredible predictions and statements that leave the reader captivated and wanting to know more. This study is an introduction to Isaiah albeit a study that will provide a foundation to a very comprehensive book. Join with Ron Olsen in the Cafeteria at 9:30 AM, beginning on February 22nd.
