Fall Women’s Bible Study: The Book of Genesis
Wednesays 10:00 – 11:30
1. Lessons Presented by Lavinia Spirito On Video In Home
Genesis explores the great themes of creation, sin, salvation, covenant, and the calling of the Chosen
People against a fascinating human backdrop. The first eleven chapters deal with God and humanity at
large. The remaining ones address the special role of the people called to be His very own. Adam and
Eve, Noah, Abraham and Sarah, Jacob and Joseph are the unforgettable characters that anchor the very
first story told about God and His creation.
Talks address these themes plus Creation and Flood theories, the relationship between faith and science,
the Theology of the Body, moral absolutes versus cultural relativism, the question of evil, and many others, set in applicable theological, archeological, legal, and historical context. Our practical application of
these principles to our daily lives is an integral part of our call to holiness as Christians.
2. Discussion with old and new friends who join Women’s Bible Study
3. Orientation and getting to know you social: Wednesday, August 24.
4. Expanding understanding, faith, prayer, and friendship through discussion of the week’s lesson.
Please sign up for Women’s Bible Study on FlockNote, or call Mary Beth at 864-354-1815 to ask questions or to sign up!
