Weekly Word Advent Bible Study
Please join us for these Weekly Word Advent Bible Study classes on Sunday, December 1, 15, and 22, at 10 am in M204.
December 1: The Magnificat
The Magnificat is a passage in the Bible, Luke 1:46-66, where Mary praises God in response to Elizabeth’s words. Mary’s prayer describes God’s care for the lowly, his reversal of human authority, and his frustration of the powerful. Her song has been copied into the Book of Common Prayer and for most Protestant churches is sung during the Advent season. (Led by the Reverend Dr. Scottie Stamper)
December 15: Jesus’ Family Tree
We often skip the “begats” throughout scripture, but they tell a story of surprising grace and unbelievable love, if we just know where to look. Join The Reverend Allen Pruitt for a look at God’s grace in our spiritual family tree.
December 22: What Does It Mean for God to Be Born?
Christianity makes a unique claim: the God of Creation was born into the world, and not in a palace, but in an out of the way barn. Learn the real meaning of Christmas and how it’s even bigger than you ever imagined. (Led by The Reverend Allen Pruitt)
