Upcoming events and activities from Monday, July 28th – Sunday, August 3rd
MONDAY
Bible/Disciple Class
Our Monday Bible/Disciple Study class just finished our study on the Book of Isaiah which was an awesome study! We would like to invite you to our final session before we break for the summer on July 28, 2025. During this session, we are honored to have a guest presenter, Reverend Dr. Ronald Glenn, providing additional thoughts and insights on the Book of Isaiah. Dr. Glenn listed the following resource that you might want to take a look at should you have a chance: Commentary on the Book of Isaiah: An In-Depth Look at the Gospel of the Old Testament by Father Mitch Pacwa.
Most of you might remember Dr. Glenn, who is the author of “Even If: Trusting God When The Unthinkable Happens”, which is one of the books we used in a previous Bible Study, and he came to Gethsemane for a book discussion during one of our Gethsemane Reads sessions led by Reverend Obie Wright. I hope and pray that each of you will be able to join in for our Bible Study session on Monday, July 28, 2025 at 10:00am for this insightful session on the Book of Isaiah! Also, we invite you to join one or more of our Bible Studies in the Fall, in which more information will be forthcoming from our Christian Education Ministry!
Please feel free to share this information with anyone you think might be interested in joining us as well.
