Bible Study

Come and discover Jesus as the ultimate caregiver while also reflecting on your own self-care. These discussions are great for those who are just investigating life with Jesus as well as committed Christ-followers.

"Are you feeling weary? Perhaps worn out from adversity or conflict? Jesus' justice-worn heart, dusy feet and tear-laden eyes remind us he carries our humanity into God's presence as the only true Son of God and our great mediator. Come and study the book of Hebrews where you will find an anchor for your weary soul."

We’re all moving toward the unknown this fall. We don’t know what to expect, or even how to imagine what things will be like. It’s a critical moment when we can choose to follow Jesus on the journey, to walk by faith instead of sight. This collection of readings from the Emerging Scholars Network blog is designed to help you do that together. Built in are study questions, prayer ideas, and optional spiritual activities for groups meeting online or in socially distanced ways.

Whether you just started graduate school or are almost finished, our weekly fall readings are designed to help you journey forward with a strong sense of calling to God’s work in the university. Read and discuss with a small group, or reflect on your own. Click here to go to the readings on the Emerging Scholars Blog.

This discussion guide is the main resource for study of the text of I Peter. Often there are more questions than could be well addressed in a single small group gathering, so you will need to make some choices about what to include for your meeting. You could spend more than one meeting on a given section of I Peter as well.
