BIBLE STUDIES
THERE’S A PLACE FOR YOU HERE!
We are a group of friendly people who together desire a deeper relationship with Jesus. Our Bible studies are selected to focus on knowing Christ through the Scriptures and applying His teaching to our lives in a meaningful way. We enjoy times of rich fellowship as we discuss, learn, challenge and support each other in our journey to know Jesus. If you are looking for Godly friendships and an environment where you can be yourself then this group is for you!
John Bible Study - 2 Levels
- John Level 2 – Jan 31 to May 1, 6:30 pm-7:30 pm - Every other week (mostly): We call this level “Partner with Me” because at this level of our Bible journey, we are ready to begin to read the Bible, but we need a lot of help to understand what is in this marvelous book. In this level of study, you will be asked to read 3 chapters of the Bible every other week with helps to understand what is going on in the on in the story. Our one-hour class led by Pastor Craig, both in-person and through Zoom, will cover the main story in the text and remove obstacles to reading the text. When you are done with this study, you will have a working knowledge of the book of John as well as clue to read the other three gospels. We will meet on Jan31, Feb 21 (we will skip Feb 14 for Ash Wednesday, Mar 6, Mar 20, Apr 3, Apr 17, and May 1.
- John Level 3 – Jan 24 to May 29, 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm – Every other week (mostly) until Level 2 Study is done and then we will go to every week: We call this level “Teach Me to Do it for Myself” because at this level you will be given the tools to discern John purpose in writing the book, how he organized his book to communicate his message, and who his intended audience is. When you do this kind of work for yourself, you will have a deep level of engagement in reading God’s Word and will grow in your tools to live a deeper life for Jesus. This 1 ½ hour class will be led by Pastor Craig, in-person and through Zoom. The participants will be challenged to answer the questions above. We will meet Jan 24, Feb 7, Feb 28, Mar 13, Mar 27, Apr 10, Apr 24, May 8, May 15, May 22, and May 29.

Join Our Ongoing Zoom Bible Study
Jeremiah Begins April 19 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm
Rural Chapel's Inductive Bible Study began to sprout after an Alpha Course in the fall of 2021. PC blessed our subsequent Bible Overview after that, because we were curious to see what the Bible was all about. Then, a group of six 'graduates' wanted to go deeper! We began to read the Bible from the beginning using a basic inductive method. We read a number of chapters each week, and we ask ourselves questions from our reading; then, we meet on Zoom every Thursday 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm to discuss our thoughts. We have learned that the Bible is not boring! We have read the Torah (first five Books of the OT), the History Books, and Poetry Books. Now? The Books of Prophecy! We have finished Isaiah and will begin Jeremiah on April 19. We invite you to join us! If you just want to check us out and 'eavesdrop' on how we run, please do!
