Precept Upon Precept: John Part 1- The Word Became Flesh and Jonah- Where are you going?

The gospel of John has been written for a clear purpose stated at the end of the book:

But these (miracles) are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name (John 20:31). Join with us to study the life Jesus Christ as He is revealed in John’s gospel. Being manifested as the Son of God, He is the Word made flesh, the way, the bread of life, the light of the world, the good shepherd, the One promised from ages past, the Messiah. John also reveals Him as the perfect Lamb and sin-bearer, offering salvation through belief in His name. This is a deep, rich study of the life of Christ as seen through the eyes of John, “the disciple whom Jesus loved.”

Philippians - The Joy of Living in Christ

Pastor Jeremiah's study guide takes us through Philippians. The believers in Philippi were experiencing both concern for Paul while he was in prison and spiritual discouragement. Paul wrote this loving letter to encourage them in their faith and to remind them that there was a greater future in store for him and for them outside this world. Paul even admits the tension he feels between living to continue sharing the gospel and dying so he can be with Christ. This mindset allowed Paul to remain joyful in the midst of suffering and he knew the same would be true of the Philippi believers as well.

The Amazing Collection: Romans - 1 Timothy- Revelation

The Amazing Collection takes you on a unique journey through Scripture, pointing to Jesus from Romans through 1 Timothy.

Book #10 Paul's letters to Pastors Book #11 Other Letters and Revelation

You can start at any part of the study going through the Bible to where you began, in order to get your 3 year certificate. For example, if you start with 2 Timothy, you will complete your 3 year study with 1 Timothy.

This study is for beginning and advanced Bible students with additional study notes to help you go even deeper.

This study is through Big Dream Ministries with 11 workbooks that cover all 66 books of the Bible.

Each week there will be 5 days of study (the big picture, a crucial chapter, a prominent player, a notable feature, and a timeless principle), requiring 3-8 hours of study time each week. You can complete a day at a time like a devotional, or you can complete more days in a sitting depending on the time you have each week.

Through this study you will gain a more thorough understanding of the WHO-WHAT-WHEN-WHERE-WHY of each book of the Bible while enjoying discussion time and fellowship with your group.

Big Dream Ministries videos bring the books of the Bible to life.

You will experience a deeper walk with our Creator and Lord, the Author of the one book that can change your life!

• Matthew

Precept upon Precept is an Inductive Bible Study that features the Precept Inductive Bible Study Method. Discover the truth for yourself. In this class, we stretch the study and take two weeks for each five days of study.

Matthew - Precept Workbook (NASB)
When Jesus came, did people receive Him as the promised Messiah? What did they say about His miracles and His teaching? What caused them to call for His crucifixion? He says He's coming back. If He came today, would people recognize Him? As you study Matthew Part 2, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the resurrection and its power in your life. Then take up the challenge to share the gospel with others.

Saturday Afternoon Bible Study | Women of Grace

Introduction to the Letters of 1 & 2 Peter

Women of Grace welcomes women of all ages. We love learning more about the Word of God and building friendships. Wherever you are in your walk with God, we invite you to discover how relevant Biblical truths are to life today.

Peter was well-qualified to write a letter to those whose faith was being tried in so many ways.
Peter witnessed the suffering of Christ firsthand - inflicted by those who crucified Him and by Peter's own denial of Him in the face of danger. Perhaps it was these experiences that influenced his first epistle, which focuses on righteous conduct when undergoing persecution.

Both 1 and 2 Peter demonstrate the disciple's remarkable growth. Where turmoil once compelled Peter to cut off a soldier's ear and deny the Savior he loved and followed, we now see him clinging boldly to faith in Jesus - even when knowing that it was going to cost him his life. In his final epistle - 2 Peter - he encourages believers to hold onto the promises of God and live them out, no matter the circumstances.

Connecting Women through Discipleship and Mentoring

Each relationship is unique and tailored to meet the needs of the woman with the goal of growing in Christ. Walk through life with a Godly woman who pours wisdom, encouragement, and prayer into your life as you face various trials and joys.

If there are times in your life when you just wish you could talk with a friend, share happy news (or sad), or meet for coffee and some "girl time", our Mentoring ministry is for you. This warm and supportive relationship with a devoted Christian woman allows you to "do life" with someone who cares for you using Biblical principles. When partnered with Discipleship, you can be equipped with a deeper understanding of a Christ-centered lifestyle and what that means to believers. Our Discipleship Ministry offers a more structured approach. It includes basic elements of our Christian faith presented in a lovely workbook/study format. Please take that first step...reach out to us and we'll be there for you!
