This month Parish Life recognizes the Adult Education Ministry team and its programs. This week we focus on DISCIPLE Bible Study. Adult Education offered its first DISCIPLE Bible Study in response to parishioners’ requests for Bible study. DISCIPLE is designed for anyone who wants to grow in their understanding of the Bible and what it means to be a disciple of Christ. The study gives the Old and New Testaments equal time, emphasizing the wholeness of the Bible as the revelation of God. It draws upon the work of scholars, personal Bible reading and study of the participant, and dynamic group discussion to aid in the application of biblical concepts.
Facilitated by Tammy Kirk, DISCIPLE asks three basic questions – “What does this passage say about God? What does it say about me? And what does it say about the relationship between the two?” Committed DISCIPLE participants experience personal transformation through biblically based understanding, develop meaningful relationships with those who share the journey together, and identify ways to serve more faithfully within the church, community, and the world. Many thanks to Tammy Kirk for facilitating this group and to all who participated in the inaugural class.
Registration for our 2025 – 2026 classes is open now. Information is available in the Parish Hall. Questions? Contact Tammy Kirk.
