The Gospel of John

Author/teacher (in person): Kris Murphy

Spring 2025

TUESDAYS, 6:30-8:30p, 1/21/25-4/8/25

RPC - Parker Square

Four hundred years. That’s how long it had been since the world had heard from God when the book closed at the end of the Old Testament (Malachi). But then in the “fullness of time” (Galatians 4:4), the scene opens in a new world where God puts skin on and moves into the neighborhood. In this study you’ll experience the life and ministry of Jesus Christ through the words of his most beloved friend John. You will:

• Meet the hands-on Jesus. We’ll encounter Jesus’ conversations, conflicts, healings, questions, teachings, and miracles. We’ll see Him shatter assumptions and clearly identify Himself as the one and only Son of God.
  
  
• Follow the blueprint. Through John’s unique eyewitness account, we learn that Jesus’ life gives us the framework for how to live our earthly lives well.
  
  
• Respond to the finished work of Jesus. John has a clear purpose for writing his Gospel: that we will believe in the salvation through the life, death, and resurrection of the long-awaited Messiah, Jesus Christ and experience eternal life in His name.

Hebrews, Part 1

Author/teacher (in person): Bobbie Glaser

Spring-Summer 2025

SUNDAYS, 9:15-10:45a, 3/30/25-7/13/25

RPC - Parker Square, rm 306

Join us for this 2-part Bible study* focusing on the New Testament letter of Hebrews. Throughout this entire letter the author seems to have two primary goals:

• To elevate Jesus as superior to anyone or anything else in order to show that he alone is worthy of total trust and devotion.

• And, to challenge the recipients of this letter (and those of us reading it today) to remain faithful to Jesus no matter what opposition occurs.

Jesus Christ is alive and well. He sits at God’s right hand even now to serve as our great High Priest. Hebrews will closely walk us through the purpose of the Old Testament tabernacle, the beauty of the “shepherding ministry of Christ,” and guide us to the “Hall of Faith” chapter among many other topics and themes.

* Part 2 of Hebrews will begin Fall 2025.

BSG is a 4-session video-led Bible study series. Each series includes an engaging, brief teaching to watch together that guides group conversation and meaningful reflection. Each group simply needs a “host” willing to pray for, communicate with, coordinate, and guide discussion with the other participants. No special skill or knowledge is required to start a BSG group.

BSG was created to provide access to reliable biblical resources for anyone—regardless of limitations in your schedule, mobility, or experience level—wanting to explore faith and respond to the basics of Christianity.
