Disciple Classes
 
Disciple I
Have you ever wanted to know what the Bible really says? Have you ever wondered who Obadiah and Habakkuk are, or what makes the four Gospels different? Have you ever tried to read the entire Bible by yourself, only to give up somewhere around Leviticus?
Disciple could be for you!
 
Disciple I is a 34-week bible study that guides you through the entire Bible. From Genesis to Revelation, you will learn the history of God’s chosen people. FUMC is offering Disciple I on Thursday mornings, from 9:15am-11:15am. Come fellowship together and discuss God’s Holy Word. Sign-up sheets for Disciple I are available in the area outside the Fellowship Hall. Classes begin after Labor Day.
 
Disciple II
Disciple II is a more focused, 32-week study, which goes through the books of Genesis, Exodus, Luke, and Acts. Pastor Bergland will be teaching Disciple II on Tuesday nights, from 6:00pm-8:00pm. Please note, Disciple I is not a prerequisite for Disciple II, so feel free to sign up even if you have not previously taken a Disciple course. Sign-up sheets for Disciple II is also available outside the Fellowship Hall.
