IMMERSE Small Groups
 
IMMERSE is a church-wide reading program designed to keep us connected to God by immersing ourselves in His Word. In this 8-week study, our church will embark on a Bible reading program called IMMERSE: Prophets. This study presents the First Testament prophets in groupings that generally represent four historical periods: the prophets who spoke before the fall of Israel’s northern kingdom (Amos, Hosea, Micah, Isaiah), before the fall of the southern kingdom (Zephaniah, Nahum, Habakkuk), around the time of Jerusalem’s destruction (Jeremiah, Obadiah, Ezekiel), and after the return from exile (Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi, Joel, Jonah). The Bible we will be using is the New Living Translation (NLT), but the format has been modified so that it reads like it was intended to be read – like a story. In addition to completing the weekly readings, we’ll meet together in small groups once a week to discuss what we’ve read. These groups are designed to be more like discussion groups than a “fill in the blank” kind of study. We’re asking everyone in the Church to get involved in a small group! The “IMMERSE: Beginnings” Bible ($11) and small group sign-up sheets are available in the lobby.
