Wisdom and Poetry Literature Bible Reading 

Date: August-September

Time: Daily individual reading and weekly Saturday 8am Zoom call

Location: Zoom (https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86429852093)

Details: Similar to the 90 days in the New Testament reading that was recently completed, we will begin an 80-day reading through the prophets. Every Saturday at 8:00AM, we will all Zoom in to do that day’s reading and discuss some of the readings from the previous week. Additionally, background information will be provided for each prophetic book to better understand the context of each prophet’s message.

MEN’S STUDY OF THE MINOR PROPHETS

Time: Every Wednesday morning 7:00AM

Location: Hamburg-area Chick-fil-A (1863 Plaudit Pl.)

Details: The prophets are oftentimes regarded as difficult to understand and of little relevance to our lives. However, once a person becomes familiar with prophetic writing, the intended message and modern-day applications can clearly be perceived. The prophets were men chosen by God to carry His message to the peoples of the world. Through them, we learn about the seriousness of sin, the need for repentance, the mercy of God, and even about reconciliation through the Messiah, Jesus Christ. The prophets may have originally spoke to an ancient audience, but their message is just as relevant for us today. We will meet each Wednesday morning at the Hamburg-area Chick-fil-A to read and discuss the minor prophets. Each meeting will be led by one of two men who will present their thoughts on a specific prophetic book and lead us in meaningful discussion. The format is designed to be friendly, warm, and low-key as to encourage group participation as we seek to apply the text to our everyday lives.

A STUDY OF THE PSALMS

Time: Every Monday morning 7:00AM

Location: Hamburg-area Chick-fil-A (1863 Plaudit Pl.)

Details: Psalms is a collection of 150 prayers and praises covering a period of nearly 1,000 years. The words of well-known individuals like Moses and David are contained in the Psalms, but also lesser-known men (including several anonymous authors) can be read in this Holy Spirit-inspired literary work. Regardless of the author, each psalm guides us in relevant topics such as dependence on God, proper worship, righteous living, repentance, and even the proper response to depression and anxiety. Even today, these ancient writings speak to us in clear and life-changing ways. We will meet each Monday morning at the Hamburg-area Chick-fil-A to read and discuss the Psalms. Each meeting will be led by one of several teachers who will present their thoughts on a specific Psalm and lead us in meaningful discussion. The format is designed to be friendly, warm, and low-key as to encourage group participation as we seek to apply the text to our everyday lives.
