Study of the Gospel of Luke

Beginning this Sunday, June 14, we will begin an in-depth, textually-based look at the Gospel of Luke. Luke, arguably more so than the other 3 Gospels, tells the story of Jesus Christ as a story for the entire world. Beginning with the story of John the Baptist, Luke presents God's message of salvation that is overtly directed as Jews, Gentiles, indeed all of Humanity. As a class, we will seek to understand the context and purpose of the Gospel by discussing each passage of text to discern its purpose in the First Century and its power in our lives.

Please join us for this study and discussion each Sunday at 11 am in Rm 311 at Clear Lake United Methodist Church.

The Case for Christ

We are currently about halfway through a 6 week study of Lee Strobel's book "The Case for Christ". From Amazon: Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines recognized experts with tough, point-blank questions: How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence exist for Jesus outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual historical event?

The study is video-based with lots of discussion in between segments, and you don't need to have read the book, so feel free to come by and take part in the study, hope to see you there!
