Adult Bible Study: Matthew

November 27, 2007 — Angela

A ten-week Bible Study on the Gospel of Matthew will be held on Thursdays, January 17 to April 3 from 7-8:30 pm, let by Pr. Robert Mortvedt.

Matthew is first in the New Testament, not because it was written first, but because of the importance given to this gospel in the life of the church. Matthew’s depiction of Jesus’ teachings in the context of His life, death, and resurrection has shone like a moral beacon on the church path through the centuries.

Plan to join this class as we begin 2008. Sign up online. There will be a cost of $14 for the study book.
