Community Bible Study

RALEIGH - NC

Come see what happens in people’s lives when they discover God through the study of His Word, the Bible. Our class meets weekly during the school year with small group discussions and large group teaching. Each class participant receives a course book with a commentary and home study questions.

Registration is open for our 2023-2024 study of Ruth & Samuel and Ephesians for either in-person or live online core groups.

We offer study groups for Women (in-person and online), Children and Youth (co-ed, in-person only), and Agape (co-ed, in-person only). Agape is an in-depth Bible study for adults with intellectual disabilities. See the Ministries Section (below) for more information.

If you would like to join an online core group, please choose your preferred meeting time (morning or evening) when you register below.

Currently Studying: Ruth and Samuel, Ephesians

In Ruth and I & II Samuel, we will encounter the stories of Ruth, Samuel, David and others who experienced dreams deferred and relationships broken, shattered hopes and shameful failures. In spite of personal trauma and national anarchy, we will find God moving to create the lineage of Jesus, revealing His plan for redemption. Strong leaders will arise. We have much to learn from these leaders who are more like us than we might imagine.

We will end our year in the New Testament letter of Ephesians. In this ancient letter, we find answers to haunting questions like: Who are we? Why are we here? How can we know we belong? Ephesians reveals God's eternal plan to redeem His people, unite them in community, and teach them to live in freedom and peace. In this study, we find the belonging, identity, and purpose for which we desperately long.
