Looking for a way to get ready for Lent? Hungry for deeper understanding of the Scriptures? Seeking for fellowship and a chance to discuss God's Word with others? Starting on February 5th and continuing for two more weeks, Deacon Tom will be offering a Sunday afternoon Bible Study focusing on the parables in the Gospel of Matthew. In his account of Jesus' last three sermons, Matthew presents some of Jesus' most provocative parables that teach about topics like the Kingdom, Mercy, and Preparing for the Lord's Return. This Bible Study will explore the context and purpose of these stories and the teaching that the Lord intended His followers to take from them. Each week will focus on one of the three themes mentioned above. Stay tuned for more details on the specific time and place, and please tell your friends!
