The Book of Revelation

Book: the Bible: Revelation
Time Frame: January through May 18
About the Study: A traditional Bible study, this group will focus on the book of Revelation in the New Testament.
Forgotten God
Facilitator: Rev. Warren Huddleston
Location: Hardee Hospitality Room
Book: Forgotten God ($14)
Book author: Francis Chan
Time Frame: 7 weeks (January-early March)
About the Study: Powerful. When is the last time someone used that word to describe you? It doesn’t make sense that almighty God would have children characterized by fear and insecurity. He put His Spirit in us so we could be known for our power (Acts 1:8; 2 Tim. 1:7). Sadly, most believers and churches are known for tales or intellect rather than supernatural power. What’s worse is that we’re okay with it.
Could it be that we’ve forgotten the One who distinguishes us from every religion and cult in the world?
Through solid scriptural support and compelling narrative, breakthrough author Francis Chan returns us to the Holy Spirit as the Bible describes Him. He reminds us that we were not created and saved merely to survive our time on earth. Chan contends that we’ve ignored the Spirit and are reaping the disastrous results.
It’s time for the beloved church of Jesus Christ to reverse the trend of neglect. Let’s pursue the Spirit-filled life of effectiveness God desires and we desire.
GriefShare
Facilitator: Marcia Henry-Day
Book: GriefShare: Your Journey from Mourning to Joy (no cost to you)
Location: Copeland Classroom 108
Meetings: 6:00-7:30pm, 13 weeks (January through April 27)
About the Group: After the funeral, when the cards and flowers have stopped coming, most of the people around you return to their normal lives. But your grief continues and you fell alone.
Often friends and family want to help you, but don’t know how. That’s the reason for GriefShare. Our group is led by caring people who have experienced grief and have.successfully rebuilt their lives. We understand how you feel because we’ve been in the same place. We will walk with you on the long path through grief toward healing and hope for the future.
GriefShare is a network of 15,000+ churches worldwide equipped to offer grief support groups. The program is nondenominational and features biblical concepts for healing from your grief. Learn more at www.griefshare.org.
GriefShare is a support group that meets weekly. You’ll find it to be a warm, caring environment and will come to see your group as an “oasis” on your long journey through grief. There are three key parts to your GriefShare experience: video seminar, support group, and workbook.

Know How We Got Our Bible
Facilitator: Dr. Jeffery Rogers / Leila Wells Rogers
Location: Heritage Room
Book: Know How We Got Our Bible ($10)
Book author: Ryan Reeves, Charles Hill
Time Frame: January through May 4
The easy accessibility of the Bible in most of the world’s major languages can obscure a dramatic and sometimes unexpected story. In Know How We Got Our Bible, scholars Ryan Reeves and Charles Hill trace the history of the Bible from its beginnings to the present day, highlighting key figures and demonstrating overall the reliability of Scripture.
Reeves and Hill begin with the writing of the Bible’s books (including authorship and dating), move into the formation of the Old and New Testaments (including early transmission and the development of the canon), and conclude with several chapters on Bible translation from the Latin Vulgate to the ongoing work of translation around the world today.
Written simply and focused on the overarching story of how the Bible came to us today, Know How We Got Our Bible is an excellent introduction for formal students and lay learners alike. Each chapter includes reflection questions and recommended readings for further learning.
