Current Adult Bible Studies
Women’s Advent Small Group
Come be part of a group as we look at the questions of people in the Christmas stories and at some Bible passages that you may not have explored at this time of year.
There will be two opportunities to choose from:
Sunday mornings, 9:30-10:30 am
Monday mornings, 9:30-10:30 am
We will be using the book While We Wait by Mary Lou Redding. There will be some work required outside of the weekly group meeting:
1. Reading one chapter this can be done in 15 minutes or less.
2. There are suggested Bible readings (short passages) and reflection/journal questions with each chapter
3. A short time of silent reflection (you determine the time) and suggested 'Breath Prayers' for each reflection.
Registration is needed to make sure we have books and a space that will accommodate the number of participants. Childcare or Sunday School classes are available for children and youth on Sunday morning. Childcare can be provided on Monday by advanced reservation only.
If you have questions, contact Susan McElya, Discipleship Director smcelya@fumcpearland.org or 281.485-1466 ext. 153.
Disciple: Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study is an approach to Bible study that emphasizes disciplined reading of and listening to Scripture. It results in biblically nourished persons committed to live as disciples.
During the course of 34 weeks, Disciple groups move through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. All Disciple Bible study participants will read more than 70 percent of the Bible. The scripture for each session follows the chronological movement of the biblical story. Each participant makes a commitment to daily preparation (3 -45 minutes per day) and weekly attendance and participation in class. Disciple aims at transformation, not just information.
A class will meet on Wednesday evenings, from 6:30-8:00 pm starting September 3. Pastor Reggie and Susan McElya are planning to co-lead this class.
If you would like more information about the Disciple Bible Study, or you are interested in being part of the class, please contact smcelya@fumcpearland.org
