Studying God's Word

In order "To Know God More Fully" opportunities to study God's Word are provided. Should you desire another time and study, contact Pastor Barz so that we can plan and offer another study.

 

Sunday Morning Bible Study / God's Word for the Week - 10:45 AM

In September 2013 St. Paul started God's Word for the Week whcih starts its second year this fall. This provides a personal and family resource for daily Bible readings from the New Testament and Psalms and a prayer resource. It includes a section from Luther's Small Catechism and short Bible verse to be studied daily and to be memorized. There is also a suggested family reading for each day. Also possible will be sessions for fathers, women, youth and children.

A copy of the weekly reading can be sent by e-mail. Contact Pastor Barz for a copy.

During the summer, God's Word for the Day is shared each Sunday morning. This immediately follows the service . It consists of a song or two, a brief look at lessons not used in the sermon and a prayer.

On Sunday morning about 10:45 AM a variety of topics are studied. They are often video based. If you have a request, let Pastor Barz know.
