Adult Bible Study:

2 Samuel 15-24

Co-ed (Wed @ 6:30)

Led by Dr. Derek Westmoreland 

Location: Fellowship Hall

A Study of the Life and Reign of King David. In 1 Samuel 16 David is anointed to be the King of Israel. As 2nd Samuel begins, David takes office as king and then we see human nature put on display for all to see, for jealousy and fear present themselves. We also learn of David’s moral failures. This year we continue the journey through 2 Samuel whereby we learn how to handle family turmoil, how to handle slander from the disrespectful, and how to respond to attacks against one’s integrity. It’s going to be an action-packed adventure. Come and join us as we study the life of David, a man after God’s own heart!

Co-ed (Wed @ 6:30)

Led by Daniel Hodges & Guy Hollingsworth

Addiction is not the problem. It is a symptom of a root problem called sin. We believe that absolute freedom from any addiction is available and can be an experienced reality in anyone no matter who you are or what you have done. This group is designed to treat our life-controlling problems Jesus’ way. As God heals our heart of root problems, negative symptoms naturally disappear as well. We can help you or a loved one who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, chemical addiction, sexual addiction, eating disorders, gambling, and a host of other life-controlling problems.

TRUTHFILLED

Ladies Group (Wed @ 6:30)

Led by LaDonia Beam
Location: A212

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” —Colossians 3:16a 

Many of us want God’s Word to dwell richly in us, but life can get in the way. We’d never intentionally write chapters of confusion, failure, loss, pain, conflict, or suffering into our stories. No one plans to wrestle with her identity in Christ, to struggle to love her husband, to feel lonely in ministry, or to feel helpless in motherhood. Yet we often find ourselves in these seasons, struggling to embrace the gospel hope we need to fill our discouraged souls. Join Ruth Chou Simons in this 7-session study of the book of Colossians as she leads us through a practice of preaching gospel truth to ourselves by studying Paul’s example. In every changing season of life, we can rest in God’s character, rehearse our identity in Christ, respond in faith, and remember God’s provision for us. In today’s culture, there’s no shortage of self-help, easy fixes, and worldly advice, but only the truth of God’s Word was meant to fill you up and satisfy you fully.

Choir (Wed @ 6:30)

Led by Zach Bearden
Location: Choir Suite

The worship choir leads us every Sunday morning during the service as well as special events throughout the year. No music reading ability or audition is required.

Orchestra (Wed @ 6:30)

Led by Anthony Baird
Location: Auditorium

The orchestra plays during the Sunday morning worship service as well as special events throughout the year. Come and join us as we serve the church through our gift of music.

Other weekly Opportunities

Very GOOD –

Ladies group, Tuesdays @ 9:30AM 

Led by Timmie Wiginton covering Lisa Harper’s book
Location: Family Life Center Classroom 

Begins August 11 

What the Bible Says About Being a Woman. A 7-session Bible study by Jen Oshman

Women today wonder if God is for them, if the Bible is for them, and if the church is for them. From Genesis to Revelation, we learn that our Creator offers life, purpose, joy, and conviction to us—women made in His image. We learn that our God is generous, merciful, and immeasurably loving. In Him, we have profound freedom and security to live the lives we were made for.

In this 7-session Bible study, Jen Oshman helps you to see how God delights in women and has a good and unique plan for every woman. This study will unveil the joy it is to be a woman, created by God, and living in step with Him and for His glory. See how very good it is to be a woman.

Ezekiel – Ladies Group

Tuesdays @ 9:30AM

Led by Jeannie Ticer
Location: Fellowship Hall

The prophet Ezekiel was among the thousands of Jews taken into captivity when the Babylonians invaded Judah in 597 B.C. While living in exile, God called him to serve as His prophet. For the next twenty-two years, Ezekiel faithfully proclaimed God’s message through powerful visions, prophecies, symbolic actions, and vivid illustrations to his fellow exiles. Although many of Ezekiel’s messages warned of God’s coming judgment because of the people’s persistent sin and refusal to repent, they were also filled with hope. His prophecies reveal God’s faithfulness, His promise of restoration, and provide more insight into Christ’s future Millennial Kingdom than any other Old Testament prophet.

Throughout this study, we will explore Ezekiel’s visions, prophecies, parables, signs, and symbols, discovering how God communicated His truth to His people during one of the darkest seasons of their history. As we examine these timeless messages, we will also be reminded that God calls each of us to pursue righteousness and holds every individual personally accountable for responding to Him in faith and obedience.

Special Stars Ministry

Tuesdays @ 9:30AM

Led by Sandy Hendrix & Melinda Forsythe
Location: C101 (Join class anytime)

Widows & Widowers

1st & 3rd Thursday of each month at 10:00AM

Led by Carl Cline and Betti Owens
Location: Family Life Center Classroom

Practical and straightforward, yet warm and compassionate, this group will be an encouragement to many, as grieving people often think something is wrong with them when their grief doesn’t proceed as neatly as planned and deal with multiple emotions all at one time. This support group is here to help address the issues grieving people face but are often hesitant to mention to others and desires to build one another up and be there for each other through their loss.

Mens Prayer Breakfast

Tuesdays @ 6:30AM

Location: Fellowship Hall

Join us for the Men’s Prayer Breakfast that meets every Tuesday at 6:30a.m. in the Fellowship Hall. This is a time for fellowship and prayer on behalf of the church, community and our country.
