    Tuesday Morning Studies


    Seeing Christ in Ezekiel
    Tuesdays, 7:00–8:00 AM  |  Group will resume in September

    Welcome Center & Zoom
    Dr. Terrill Nelson & Phil Comstock

    Ezekiel was a young priest in Jerusalem when he was carried away from Jerusalem as a POW by the Babylonians into the internment camps in Mesopotamia. His world was in turmoil. God called Ezekiel, the prophet, to preach among unrepentant Jewish exiles who’d stubbornly refused to accept responsibility for their national sin. What a mess! With bizarre visions, strange object lessons, and mysterious teachings, we’ll study how God used Ezekiel to prophesy poignant lessons not only for a fifth-century BC Israel but also for us today.

    Required Text Book:  The book will be available through the Calvary office, or from Amazon, or christianbook.com — Exalting Jesus in Ezekiel (Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series)


    Overview of the Books of the Bible
    Tuesdays, 6:30–7:30 AM  |  Group will resume in September
    Chick-Fil-A Stonecrest

    Jeff Arrington & Sy Pugh

    Join us as we study the Word of God from “In the Beginning” in Genesis 1:1 to “Amen” in Revelation 22:21. Since we are exploring the bible consecutively, book by book, you can register any time and pick it up wherever you are. This semester, we are starting with Leviticus. We will use a study guide, Bible Workbook and Guide by Brian Gugas. You may purchase your copy HERE.  


    Tuesday Evening Study


    Ecclesiastes
    Tuesdays, 7:00–9:00 PM  |  April 1 – June 17
    Zoom Only

    Wayne Hackbarth, Jon Keil & Dave Clarke

    Ecclesiastes explores the futility of human pursuits and the ultimate vanity of life. It discusses the concepts of wisdom, pleasure, work, and wealth. Solomon ultimately challenges us to trust our sovereign God. Join us for this line-by-line study using the Bible as our guide. Contact: Wayne Hackbarth, 704.641.3472, lovingminthill@gmail.com
