Under the Tree of Life is the final study in the Disciple program, concentrating on Old Testament Writings, the Gospel of John, the Epistles of John, James, Jude, and Revelation. Present through the entire study is the sense of living toward completion—toward the climax of the message and the promise, extravagantly pictured in Revelation. Led by Jerry Landers.

Remember Who You Are, covering The Prophets and the Letters of Paul, is the third study in the Disciple program. The driving idea in this study is the connection between memory and identity as the people of God. The prophets and Paul are continually calling hearers and readers back to their God and to a sense of who they are as a people ”set apart.” Led by Steve McKenzie.

Into the Word Into the World is the second study in the Disciple program, with a focus on Genesis, Exodus, Luke, and Acts. Participants are encouraged to practice spiritual disciplines arising out of Scripture for the purpose of changing habits and transforming lives. The study also emphasizes the rhythm of coming to God and going for God, of being in the Word and in the world. Led by Jill McKenzie.

Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study is a thirty-four week overview of the entire Bible. This study gives the Old and New Testaments equal time, emphasizing the wholeness of the Bible as a revelation of God. Disciple draws upon the work of scholars, the personal Bible reading and study of the participant, and dynamic group discussion. Led by Scott Toberman.

Jesus was a healer and a savior, the Messiah and the King, but he was also a teacher. Most often, he used the paradoxical language of parables to teach about the paradise that is the Kingdom of God. We are kicking off our new Sunday Lecture Series with a dive into these parables, exploring the depths and importance of Jesus' teaching for us today.

All of these questions, and many more, can be answered by turning to the theological founder of our tradition: John Wesley. Join us as we dive into Wesley’s life, work, and thought, seeking a better understanding of who we are and what we believe as Methodists in the world today.

We don't spend a lot time these days talking about Sin—its nature and character, and how it affects us and the world around us. What is Sin? What are sins? Is there a difference? What power does Sin have in our lives? And, most importantly, how are we saved and sanctified from this active force that is hunting us? Come join us as we explore these questions and many more, trying to understand the central ideas of Sin and Salvation…

The fourth gospel of the New Testament is a peculiar and odd little book and in some ways completely different from Matthew, Mark, and Luke. And yet, many Christian throughout history have claimed it as their favorite and most cherished book in the Bible. What was John up to? Why did he choose this unique way of telling the story of Jesus? Join us as we put John into conversation with the other three gospels, as well as with other…
