Bible Study on Forgiveness

Join in on an Online Bible Study on the theme of Forgiveness. No matter who we are, we all need forgiveness, but it can be challenging both to accept it and to give it. Participate on Zoom to learn about forgiveness from scripture and the Christian tradition. Tuesdays at 6pm, February 25th–March 25th.

Bible Study on Attention

What demands our attention? Where do we notice God? We will look to biblical wisdom as well as the contribution of artists to lead us. We’ll meet at a new time as well: Wednesdays at noon, starting April 10th. Join Zoom on your lunch break!

Sacraments Online Bible Study

What is a sacrament? How many are there — 2, 3, 7? Do we have Holy Water? Join Pastor Keith for a study on the sacraments using scripture and theological sources to answer these questions and more about how God shows up in our world. The class will meet for four Tuesday evenings at 7pm online using Zoom, beginning August 15th.

Tech for Humans Bible Study

What effects has technology had on your life? From air conditioning to smartphones to live-streaming worship, our lives are filled with technology that no biblical author ever knew. Some of the ways we use technology have been good for us, and some of the ways have been bad, but technology is never neutral.

The study will explore the ways technology shapes us while looking to the Bible for guidance. Instead of being a live study, each week the pastor’s presentation will be available for you to watch on your own time, and you will be invited to respond to the presentation and to one another online. (That’s right, we’re using a different technology … let’s see how it shapes us.)

The videos will be made available each Wednesday morning in Lent beginning the week after Ash Wednesday and can be seen on Facebook or on Good Shepherd’s website.

Armor of God Online Bible Study

What do you need to walk through life faithfully?

How do you use the sword of God’s word? Come join us as we try on the armor of God together in our bible study.

We will meet online using Zoom on Wednesday nights at 7pm beginning April 27th, 2022.

Online Bible Study on Revelation

Everyone has ideas about the Book of Revelation, also known as the Apocalypse. Because these ideas are…a little weird and scary, many Christians avoid it altogether. But the purpose of Revelation is not to condemn or to scare. Come join us as we discover the real story being told in the Apocalypse. We will meet online using Zoom on Tuesday nights at 7pm beginning January 11th, 2022.
