The 23rd Psalm is familiar to many individuals. It’s read at funeral and memorial services. It’s recited by those who are ill. It’s regarded as a poem of comfort and assurance. Yet Dave Tomlinson, author of Still Waters and Skyscrapers, believes that the psalm is a song of life that teaches us about the nature of faith in every situation. Through class discussion, enrich your perspective and expand your understanding of this beloved biblical text.

March 26-May 21 A Bible Study of the Book of Romans
It is difficult to overstate the importance of Romans in Christian tradition. Some of the great formers and reformers of church teaching were themselves formed by their reading of Romans. One of the aims of this study is to invite us into conversation around several key themes: (1) Paul's emphasis on communal salvation; (2) the centrality of God's righteousness; and, (3) the role of love and humility in God’s kingdom.
