Genesis

Looking at Genesis as it lays out the foundations of the Bible, Abraham's faith and Abraham's family.

Exodus

Studying Exodus as we watch God redeem, covenant and dwell all based on memories from the past.

Leviticus

Sacred Space, the priests, sacrifices, holiness, worship....Leviticus provides a foundation for the entire Bible

Deuteronomy

Moses is saying goodbye and giving his people his finals words. After 40 years together, he is reminding them of their purpose and goal.

Judges

It's time to judge the Judges. You may be familiar that there is downward cycle, so it's time to look into closer the horrific events during this period.

Ruth

A powerful story of chesed shown through two women. Erika paints this story with bold colors.

Esther

Sounds like a movie with a hero, a heroine, a villain, and a drunk king. But going deeper, it's a story all about God and His role in their lives.

Daniel

It's time to go beyond the Sunday school lessons and see how Daniel and his friends can teach us to act today as we study their faith in action.

Digging deeper than the kid's version. This is a story of a man who was willing to die so others might die as well...not the typical Bible lesson.
