Bible Study
Sunday Mornings - Education Time
Living Lutheranism: a 6-week Faith Formation series Sundays at 11am via Zoom, Pastor Kari Jo is offering a series on the Lutheran expression of the Christian faith. Drawing on Daniel Erlander's insight that Lutheranism is "a way of life," the series will explore a Lutheran take on some of the fundamental questions of faith. All are welcome! The sessions will be friendly to all backgrounds and will not require advanced preparation. Below are the remaining sessions:
Week 3 (February 28): Lutheran Soteriology (from what/for what are we are saved?) Week 4 (March 7): Lutheran Worship (when Jesus throws a party, he shows up) Week 5 (March 14): Lutheran Ethics (how then shall we live?) Week 6 (March 21): The ELCA (and other acronyms) Sunday School Classes are online, from 11:00-11:30. 7th-12th grade students will have a Bible study with Hal Dvorak. The class is now studying portions of St. Paul's epistles. 1st-6th graders will meet with Susan Batutis, Emily DeGroat, and Elizabeth Moisuk, and will learn about New Testament stories. All are welcome! |
