UPCOMING EVENTS
Men’s Bible Study Begins
Rise MKE men are invited to gather this spring for a 12-week Bible study through 1 and 2 Timothy, focusing on what it means to “love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith” (1 Timothy 1:5).
The group will meet downstairs on Saturdays from 9:00–10:30 a.m., beginning February 14 and running through May 16. This free study, led by Patrick Wood and Mike Zimmerman, will walk through Paul’s letters to Timothy, calling men to fight the good fight of the faith, persevere in the gospel despite hardship, and stay rooted in God’s Word so we can love others well and live with integrity in a broken world.
Please RSVP below and come ready to grow together as we seek to “fight the good fight” and “finish the race” in faith.
Women’s Bible Study Begins
The women will be going through Beth Moore’s Believing God—a truly life-changing 10 week study that challenges us not only to believe in God, but to believe God and trust His promises more deeply. This will start on Saturday, February 14th from 9 to 10:30 AM.
Participants will need to purchase the Believing God Bible study book prior to February 14th. It is available on Amazon, Lifeway.com, or Christianbook.com.
If purchasing the book is a hardship, please let Pastor Susan know—the church would be happy to help.
