This fall, Pastor Alex will be leading a Bible study entitled The Sermon on the Mount: A Beginner's Guide to the Kingdom of Heaven, written by New Testament scholar Amy-Jill Levine. With particular attention to its historical context & Jesus' Jewish identity, we will discuss how the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew offers a type of road map for our faith.
We invite you to join us for robust discussions with many different learning opportunities. All sessions will be offered both at 11:00AM & 7:00PM; come for whatever time works for you! Each session will last 1 hour.
The sessions will be as follows (both in-person in the Good News Center library & on Zoom):
Wednesday, September 21st: 11:00AM & 7:00PM
NO BIBLE STUDY ON SEPTEMBER 28th
Wednesday, October 5th: 11:00AM & 7:00PM
