Have you ever wondered how the different books of the Bible and their stories fit together? Do you find yourself confused by the prophets in the Old Testament, or unsure how the Old and New Testaments relate to one another? If so, you're not alone! Pastor Andrew Stepp will guide us through a Bible study, Get a Grip on the Bible, designed to help answer your questions. Get a Grip on the Bible is a 10-week class that walks through the redemption story from Creation to Revelation, chronicling the themes and major events of Biblical history. Please join us as we walk through God's story from Eden to the Ends of the Earth!

Date: February 4 - April 16, 2025

Experience The Great Banquet, a 72-hour weekend retreat designed for guests to come together to eat, laugh, sing, pray, and grow deeper in their faith as they explore Jesus.

You are invited to join us at the Great Banquet! Mark your calendars for the upcoming Great Banquet weekends:

• Fall 2025 Women's Great Banquet weekend is October 23-26
• Fall 2025 Men's Great Banquet weekend is November 6-9

What is the Great Banquet?

Beginning on Thursday evening and ending Sunday evening, Great Banquet guests eat, laugh, sing, pray, learn and live together. During each of the fifteen talks given by laity and clergy, the theme of God's grace is presented, followed by a time of discussion. Guests participate daily in the celebration of Holy Communion and examine the presence of Christ in his body of believers. Through the prayers and acts of a loving, Christian support community, they experience God's grace in a personal and tangible way.
