New Wednesday Bible Study Series

This coming Wednesday (January 12th) at 7 PM the mid-week Bible study will be starting a new series on the parables of Jesus. The purpose of the study is to help understand Jesus’ parables, what he intended to teach, the response he expected and how we can apply his parables today. Each class will include information on the historical and cultural setting of the parable so that we can understand the aspects of the story within the ministry of Jesus. The study will be based on the book, “Fascinating Bible Studies on Every Parable”, by Dr. William H. Marty.  Listed below are the lessons:
