This study will take you through the Bible and will begin in the Book of Hebrews, taking a look at The Superiority of Christ. The goal is to study the Word, apply it to life, and encourage one another in the process. Jeff Price will be leading this study every Monday morning at the Starbucks on 12th Ave. at 6am. If you are interested in joining, please contact Jeff directly. His number is 949-689-6131.

A new study from the Gospel of Matthew called “Follow Me” by Elizabeth Ficken will be starting up on April 26th. It will take place on Monday’s at the church from noon to 2pm and 6:30-8:30pm. Sharon Yoast will be facilitating it and the cost is $17.00 for the workbook. Visit the welcome table in the foyer to sign up or call the office if you have any questions. Below is a little more about the study from Elizabeth.

What did Jesus say that caused men to abandon their jobs and embrace this extreme calling? And what did Jesus do that made people flock to be near Him? Why did Jesus befriend twelve men and mentor them for three years? Why did Jesus make enemies with religious leaders? Why did Jesus endure betrayal, torture and death? What happened after He died?

Who was this man and what would He say to you?

This in-depth study of the gospel of Matthew will give you the answers to these questions and challenge you to a more passionate commitment to Jesus. You will learn from Matthew’s eye-witness perspective, his proofs from Old Testament Scriptures, and his presentation of five Sermons of Jesus, just Who Jesus is, what He did, and what He said. Matthew’s life was drastically changed from his encounter with Jesus. Yours will be too.
