The Book of Acts is volume two of Luke's two volume set. In these two books (Luke and Acts) Luke sets forth, in a well-organized, systematic way, how Jesus Christ fulfilled God’s purpose and how He continues to fulfill that purpose in and through His people. Our goal for this study is not just to understand the story of Jesus and His people; our goal is to become that story today.

Class Title is "Glorifying God in the World Today - My Role and How to Achieve it"
Link: Wednesday Evening Bible Study Stream
Glorify means “to ascribe glory to; adore. To elevate in honor: reflect glory upon.” The purpose of all created beings, especially those who are His children, is to glorify God because He is worthy of all glory, honor and power (Rev. 4:11).
Glorifying God in your life means to recognize and respond to God's attributes and acts, and to live in a way that reflects His goodness. In our class this quarter we will examine key attributes that will help us in Glorifying God in our lives.
We will identify the individual talents that God has given each of us and how to use those talents for His Glory. We will conclude the class by evaluating how we can Glorify God in our relationships.
If we expect to be with God in glory in our eternal home in heaven, we must glorify Hime while we live here on earth.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Wednesday Evening Women's Bible Class Syllabus.
In Classroom 2. We have various roles as women. Sometimes we fill multiple roles at once. These roles may not always be the same from one individual to another, and our roles may change over time. Nevertheless, in whatever role(s) we find ourselves, there is the opportunity to serve and bring God glory in how we live, speak, and act. The topic this quarter will hopefully encourage us to strive to bring God glory in our current roles; as well as provide some insight on how we can encourage our sisters in Christ who may be in different roles or seasons than we are.

Third Quarter 2024 Sunday Morning in Adult Classroom
Class Teachers is Lewis Wheaton
Class Title is "Following the Kings: How God’s People should be Regardless of the Earthly King".
Classically when we study the Kings, we focus on the kings themselves and their various levels of success and failure. However, less frequently we consider the people under the kings and how they influenced and followed leadership. During the quarter, we will focus on what the Bible tells us about this era in relation to 3 core questions:
- How did the people react to God’s instructions before the era of the kings?
- What struggles did the people have as the kings led the people, and what caused this?
- What lessons could the people have learned, and what lessons can we learn from these people?

| Lesson 8 | August 25 | A focused renewal “The battle is not yours, but God’s” | 2 Chron 20: 13-17 |
