Bible Study For Your Faith Journey


 Disciple Bible Study consists of four units each 32-34 weeks long.  Students read the Scriptures, watch videos, and discuss what the text means in their faith journey at each weekly meetings.  The video tapes are presentations by respected theologians.  The group learns about each other through regular fellowship time.

Disciple I meets on Wednesday night from 7-9:30 PM and will be lead by Bill Fenneken.  Disciple IV  meets on Sunday evenings from 7-9:30 PM and will be lead by Jeanine Watters and Beth Evans 

Here are some testimonials from students.

"I have a long way to go but my faith journey has begun.  It has opened up even more questions than I had before.  The great thing is I'm not alone and studying with others has helped me look at the scriptures from different perspectives because we come from different backgrounds.  I don't know all the answers, and never will but it has helped me to understand that the journey is exciting and will be for a long time."

"Disciple was my first in depth Bible study.  The intensity and structure of the course allowed me to grow in many ways.  All of the class members were at different points along their spiritual paths but the disciple's vocabulary gave us a common ground.  For all of you who want to go the next step or think outside of the box join a disciple group .......

We have taken two Disciple Bible classes, two and three.  As a couple this was particularly enriching for us as we were able to read and study the Bible together.  We enjoyed the discussions and fellowship of the group.  We certainly learned a great deal more about the Bible and were able to clear up many of our early misconceptions.  We are now looking forward to disciple IV
