The purpose of the Study Table is to oversee, provide for, and encourage the congregation in its ministry of discipleship.

GUIDING SCRIPTURE:

MINISTRY TEAMS & CONTACTS:

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. (Psalm 119:105)
The regular study of the Bible and books that help to enliven its message (e.g., Luther’s catechisms, commentaries and other study resources) is a key way the disciple practices loving and knowing God. Study happens privately through personal Bible study and a regular devotional time. Study also happens publicly as families and friends learn together in small groups, and through larger gatherings of formal study and worship. The maturing disciple attends to “study” in both private and communal contexts. Through reading, meditating and the study of Scripture, the lively word of God becomes active in the lives of believers. For thousands of years, the words of Jesus, the teachings of the prophets and apostles, and the stories of God’s people have revealed God’s heart and hope for the world and each one of us. The Holy Spirit inspires us through Scripture to see ourselves as we are and as God would have us become. Through the Bible we come to understand how God works in the world, for the world and through people like us.
