    The doctrine of divine providence can be summarized this way: "God in eternity past, in the counsel of His own will, ordained everything that will happen, yet in no sense is God the author of sin, nor is human responsibility removed." This study is designed to help us understand how God uses His attributes to ensure that His purposes are fulfilled, not only for the whole world, but for each of us as individuals.

    Foundations is a two hundred and sixty day reading plan that highlights the foundational passages of Scripture that every disciple should know. After failed attempts of reading through the Bible in a year with previous discipleship groups, Robby & Kandi wanted to create a manageable plan that any believer could complete and use to grow in their knowledge and memorization of God's Word. The Foundations book provides commentary and questions to help you understand and navigate the daily reading.

    THE DECONSTRUCTION OF CHRISTIANITY: What It Is, Why It’s Destructive, and How to Respond

    BY ALISA CHILDERS AND TIM BARNETT


    FACILITATORS: RICK & SUSANNA ROSE

    LOCATION: TBD

    BEGINS AUGUST 14

    A movement called ‘deconstruction’ is sweeping through our churches and it is affecting our loved ones. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many, and this book can help you not only understand what’s happening, but also stand your ground and respond with clarity and confidence. Maybe you have a loved one who is deconstructing their faith, and you are struggling to know how to respond; maybe you are trying to understand the radical spiritual makeover your friend or family member is going through; maybe your relationship with a loved one has been strained or even cut off because of your “toxic” Christian beliefs and you don’t know what to do; maybe you’re experiencing doubt yourself and facing hard questions about truth, God, the Bible, theology and the gospel.

    Some who leave the faith feel wounded by the church. Others feel repressed by some of the moral imperatives found in Scripture. For some, it leads to a custom-made spirituality. For others, deconstructing their faith leads them away from the truth into agnosticism, atheism, the occult, or humanism.

    In this seminal book, Alisa Childers, author of Another Gospel?, and Tim Barnett, creator of Red Pen Logic, will help you understand what deconstruction is, where it comes from, why it is compelling to some, and how it disorients the lives of so many. You will be able to think through the main issues around faith deconstruction and explore wise and loving ways to respond from a biblical worldview.

    PAUL FOR EVERYONE: GALATIANS AND THESSALONIANS

    BY N.T. WRIGHT


    FACILITATOR: Brett Minter


    WEDNESDAY NIGHTS AT 6:00 PM

    LOCATION: FELLOWSHIP HALL CLASSROOM WING, FH24

    BEGINS AUGUST 14


    REGISTER

    NT Wright's eye-opening comments on these letters are combined, passage-by-passage, with his fresh and inviting new translation of the Bible text. Making use of his true scholar's understanding, yet writing in an approachable and anecdotal style, Wright captures the tension and excitement of the time as the letters seek to assert Paul's authority and his teaching against other influences. NT Wright has undertaken a tremendous task: to provide guides to all the books of the New Testament, and to include in them his own translation of the entire text. Each short passage is followed by a highly readable discussion, with background information, useful explanations and suggestions, and thoughts as to how the text can be relevant to our lives today.

    NONE LIKE HIM BY JEN WILKIN, FOLLOWED BY LUKE IN THE LAND BY KRISTI MCLELLAND

    Facilitator: Tara hughes

    WEDNESDAY NIGHTS AT 6:00 PM

    location: fellowship hall classroom wing


    REGISTER

    This class will be finishing the book "None Like Him" by Jen Wilkin! The class will resume with chapter 6 on August 14, and will finish on September 11. They are reviewing a chapter per week when meeting. This is an easy book to jump into, so do not hesitate to register if you are interested in being a part of the women's fall discipleship class! After that book is finished, the class will begin Luke in the Land by Kristi McLelland, and will watch the video sessions in class that accompany the study guide!


    None Like HimOur limitations are by design. We were never meant to be God. But at the root of every sin is our rebellious desire to possess attributes that belong to God alone. Calling us to embrace our limits as a means of glorifying God's limitless power, Jen Wilkin invites us to celebrate the freedom that comes when we rest in letting God be God.


    Luke in the LandIn our Bibles, we have four Gospels describing Jesus’s time on earth: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The land of Israel—the place Jesus walked and taught during His earthly ministry—is often referred to as the “fifth Gospel.”


    Follow Kristi McLelland through Israel as we study snapshots from the Gospel of Luke to see where the stories of the Bible took place. Over 7 sessions in this Bible study workbook, challenge the way you read the accounts of Jesus through teaching videos that take you to locations in Israel like Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Gethsemane, Jerusalem, and the road to Emmaus. Along the way, you'll see how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everybody.

    Deep in the soul of every person on earth is a longing for the presence of God. The heart of every human being strives toward God, but only the redeemed can overcome the great barriers between God and man. For the greatest barrier of all is the conflict between man's desire for God and his sinful desire to please himself. In Experiencing the Presence of God, Tozer examines what it means to dwell in God's presence and invites believers into a fresh understanding and experience of God's indwelling presence.
