Marketplace People | Meeting on Zoom or in G-9
Come and visit the Marketplace Class as we study the books of James and Jude. These two epistle writers were two of the four half-brothers of Jesus, who at times during His ministry, seemed to mock Him and at another, accused Him of being “out of His mind”. However, after His arrest, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension, they joined His disciples. In time, James even became a leader in the early church.
Whether you’re a seeker, a questioner or longtime churchgoer, already in a class or want to try a different one, this new study welcomes you. Marketplace People is a multi-generational group that uses inductive Bible study first to see what the Bible says, then to discern through the Holy Spirit what the passage means, and finally to investigate how to apply those truths to our lives. All are welcome to attend and encouraged to participate. The class meets in person and via Zoom, which is perfect for those traveling or who just want to attend occasionally.
Facilitators: Charles Fowler or Carolyn Ashworth
