Love & Respect Bible Study for Couples

 

Upcoming Bible Study for Couples: "Love & Respect":

Beginning January 7, this 4-week study is just the thing for couples to start the new year! Thursdays @ 6:30pm. Cost: $5/couple

 

Sarah and Emerson are convinced that a truth hidden in plain sight for 2000 years can make a difference in every marriage. This truth is found in Ephesians 5:33. Husbands must love their wives and wives must respect their husbands.

 

Emerson writes, "You may remember how the Beatles sang, 'All you need is love.' I absolutely disagree with that conclusion. Five out of ten marriages today are ending in divorce because love alone is not enough. Yes, love is vital, especially for the wife, but what we have missed is the husband's need for respect.

 

This Love and Respect message is about how the wife can fulfill her need to be loved by giving her husband what he needs -- respect. And the husband can fulfill his need to be respected by giving his wife what she needs -- love. Does this always work? No. But if one is married to a person of good will, I would bet the farm that it would work!"

The study includes video teaching and group discussion.

Youth & Education

 

 

Christian Education 

 

Education is an ongoing process in the world of Christianity, just as it is in the "secular" realm. To that end, we offer Sunday School for the very young and we bring a message to the older folks at Millie Beneke. In-between, there are Bible Study, Confirmation, and Small Group Study opportunities for every age level and every faith level.

Christian education has always been important at Good Shepherd. Our young people receive instruction from the pages of Holy Scripture in Sunday School, Kids’ Praise (after school programming), and Confirmation. Adults continue to build on their foundation by studying the Bible on Sunday mornings, Tuesday mornings, and Wednesday evenings (sometimes alongside their children/youth, sometimes as adult groups).

Good Shepherd is small in size, but great in caring for one another. This caring translates into more intimate worship & Small Groups for education & study of Holy Scripture.

  • Sunday School studies Bible Stories and acquaints children/youth with the truth of God's interaction with people throughout history. Grades N-8 are eligible for these lessons.
  • Kids Praise is our Wednesday after-school program. Grades 1-4 come over after school and enjoy a snack and a lesson (led by Pastor James). Singing, playing, and crafts are all a part of this program.
  • Sunday morning Adult Bible Class runs during the school year (September - May) following worship, and builds on important topics of today's world, addressed in God's Word. The topic for 2008-2009 has been the development of the Hebrew people into God's chosen.
  • Tuesday Morning Bible Study meets at 9:30am during the school year. The ongoing topic for this class has been I & 2 Peter.
  • Millie Beneke Manor hosts a Tuesday afternoon (2:00pm) study.  
  • Confirmation instruction is available for all 5-8 graders. Julie Stiles leads the 5-6 graders in studying topical issues such as evolution, Bible History, and Worship. Pastor James leads the 7-8 graders in learning from Luther’s Small Catechism – a helpful tool for studying the Bible in-depth. 
  • Community Women’s Bible Study involves women of all ages. They meet in a Fall and/or a Winter session in a Thursday-night or Friday-morning format. 
  • Men’s Bible Study has met on Thursday evenings and Thursday mornings.
