Life of Jesus:
Parables
This study looks at the spiritual
meaning behind many common parables of Jesus and how the message
relates to the lives of God’s people. Usually some new insight
develops as a result of discussion in class. |

Lutheran
Spirituality: Witness
An excellent
introductory course to make “sharing what you believe” a little
easier knowing that Jesus promises to be with you. |

Good News: The
Apostles' Creed
A refreshing look at each of the short
phrases in the three articles and the meaning behind each one.
Reciting the Creed in worship will have a greater significance than
ever before. This study is the latest issue of the Good News
magazine, known for its awesome historical artwork and pictures. |

God's Word for Today: Romans
If there ever was an epistle that really “hits home” for today’s
Christian, this is it. This is a verse-by-verse study for those who
like discussion in class. Couples, singles, high school, young
adults, young and old are welcome. |

Spilker |

God's Word for Today: I Corinthians
Another in-depth
look at the issues troubling the Corinthian congregation—which by
the way, shows up in congregations today. A Men's Bible class around
Bill’s kitchen or dining room table (with tea, coffee and warm rolls
every week). |
Wednesday 9:15 a.m.
Moms' Bible Study |
Judy Burrow |
Parish Hall/Lower Level |
Bevilacqua
Would you believe an awesome women’s devotional book written by one
of our own—Anneka (Wolff) Hudson! A great discussion starter every
week that is Biblically based. Immediately follows the A.L.I.S.
chapel service. |
| Wednesday 10:00 a.m. |
Charlott Brauer and Margaret
Fritcher |
Parish Hall/Lower Level |
Lutheran
Spirituality: Prayers
Imagine being
able to talk to the most powerful person in the world as your
friend, who will provide you with what is best for you in every
situation that comes up. You don’t have to imagine--it’s reality!
God is beyond any person in the world. A good overview of how
we can talk to God. |
| Wednesday 1:00 p.m. |
Robert Kassel/Bill Wendling |
Lutheran Care Center Terrace |
Life of Jesus:Parables
Jesus’ parables have meaning for everyone. An “earthly story with a
heavenly meaning”. This class is held in the Lutheran Care Center
Terrace “commons” area and is open to anyone, even those who may not
live in the Terrace or Villas. |
| Thursday, 9:30 a.m. |
Shirley Muchow, Adela Goers,

Great Women of the Bible: Eve,
Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, Rachel
This is not your modern day “Desperate Housewives”. Or is it?
Desperate maybe, but not modern day? Wellll? Come and see what the
Bible says about these well-known women. |
All of these Bible study groups are open to
everyone. Participants do not need to be Immanuel members. All
groups could use more people. Each group should be searching for
more people to invite.
