The Bible Year Updates - God’s Favorite Playlist
In May, we will be reading through the Psalms. The Psalms are the songs ancient Israel used to worship God—formally and informally, as assemblies and as individuals. The Psalter is divided into five books, each with a wide collection of authors, that speak to the wide range of emotions within the human experience.
May Bookmarks are available in the Church Office and in our Worship spaces!
During the Easter season, we have two wonderful class offerings that both look at our Methodist history from two very different angles:
In this class, led by Amber Forrest and Pastor Ashley, we will take a look at songs from the vast songbook of our Methodist past. Both John and Charles Wesley were prolific hymn writers, using familiar tunes to teach deep understandings about the love and grace of God.
In this class, led by Heather Vaught and a series of special guests, we will learn more about how Methodism has intersected — and continues to intersect — with American culture, from its colonial beginnings to our denomination.
