Disciple Bible Studies ~ This exciting and dynamic approach to Bible study created by the United Methodist Church focuses on the disciple as a learner, believer, follower, proclaimer and servant. The purpose of Disciple may best be expressed in the words of John 8:31- If you make my Word your home, you will be my disciples.

Also, there is an added weekly focus on one of the spiritual disciplines. Completion of Disciple I is required to take this class. $36 plus optional materials
Disciple III ~ A 32 week study concentrating on the writings of the Old Testament prophets and on the letters of Paul. Completion of Disciple I is required to take this class. $36
Jesus in the Gospels ~ A 30 week course focusing on the portraits of Jesus in the four Gospels - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Daily assignments include Old Testament and New Testament passages and use gospel comparison resources. Completion of Disciple I and another Disciple class is required to take this class. $45
Christian Believer ~ A 30 week study integrating Bible study with study of the basic beliefs of the Christian faith. By yoking doctrine with the Bible, this study develops familiarity with the Bible and what the church believes and teaches. The study enriches worship by helping to understand the language of faith in hymns, creeds, symbols, sermons and scripture. $42
