Upcoming Tuesday Bible Study Topics Decided

At this evening's gathering of the Tuesday Night Bible Study, participants decided on topics we'll be delving into in coming weeks.

We enjoyed the four-session study of the New Testament book of First Peter from the Augsburg Fortress small group Bible studies. (Augsburg Fortress is the official publishing house of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.) The upcoming studies will all be from this series.

The upcoming studies will be:

• Blowing in the Wind: A six-session Bible study on the Holy Spirit
• Galatians: A four-session Bible study of living freely in Christ
• Justice for a troubled world: A four-session study in Amos
• Epistle of Joy: A four-session study on Philippians

With each of these studies, there will be some advance reading and you'll receive questions on the passages to be looked at, which you'll receive in advance via email and on this site.

The study on the Holy Spirit will begin next Tuesday evening, February 27, from 7:00 to 8:30PM. It was written by Wilfred Bockelman, a son of Saint Paul Lutheran Church in Napoleon Township, Ohio, about five miles from the congregation Pastor Mark served as pastor for six years before coming here to found Friendship. His nephew and his family were members of that congregation, Bethlehem Lutheran Church of Okolona, Ohio. Plan on attending and invite a non-churchgoing friend!
