Isaiah Adult Bible Study: Isaiah
April 29th – June 10th at 7:30 PM
Isaiah was a prophet, God’s mouthpiece to the nation of Judah. He challenges us, just as he challenged them, to rest in God’s promises. In this study, we will learn to trust God for who He is and how He reveals Himself in Scripture. We will grow in understanding of the Book of Isaiah and its prophecies. We will grasp how Jesus fulfills the promises in the Book of Isaiah. And we will discover peace in God’s commands, character, and comfort. We will meet on Tuesday evenings at 7:30. There is no cost for the study booklet, which comes with video access. Sign-up sheets are located on the sign-in table in Fellowship Hall. Please see Wendy, [email protected], if you need more information or would like to sign up. Bring a friend!
