Bible Study Fellowship – Men – Thurs – Mark Schoedel
Bible Study Fellowship – Men – Thurs – Mark Schoedel
Schoedel, Mark
This year’s study, Exile and Return, invites you on a powerful journey through the Old Testament, where God’s people were called to build His kingdom in a foreign land. Their story is our story – we, too, are strangers in a broken world, called to build for His glory. As we explore how God equips and positions His people, we’re challenged to ask: Am I building my life for Christ? Exile and Return reminds us that our time is now. Books included in this year’s study: Ezekiel, Daniel, Ezra, Esther, Haggai, Zechariah, Nehemiah, and Malachi.
Length of study: September 11- May 7 (with holiday breaks)
This Men’s class meets: Thursday evenings 7:00 – 8:30
This curriculum is developed by Bible Study Fellowship. BSF’s goal is global, in-depth Bible studies producing passionate commitment to Christ, His Word and His Church. The study book is available for $20.
Group members spend time in personal Bible study during the week with questions that prompt deeper thought. Once a week they meet for small-group discussion around what they have read. They also have access to a teaching that applies the truths of Scripture to daily life along with comprehensive notes on the passage they have studied.
If interested, please contact Mark Schoedel at â€412-551-8531‬ or markpschoedel@gmail.com.
