Join us on Monday evenings this fall for our newest study in the Disciple Bible Study Series, Jesus in the Gospels. The overarching aim of the study is to deepen discipleship through better understanding of the biblical texts and their message. This study helps group members explore how Jesus is rooted in Judaism and the Scriptures of Judaism, and that Christianity and the New Testament are rooted in the Scriptures of Judaism—our Old Testament.The course is 30 weeks long and requires at least five hours of preparation weekly for class conversation and discussion.
Email disicpleship@foundryumc.org for more information.
