Paul’s message to the Galatians is familiar to us. Or at least we suppose so! In his letter to these churches, the apostle speaks not only to the first century but also to the 21st century. He speaks to the questions of our time with amazing vitality. He speaks to the exclusion of outsiders and thus to racial issues. He addresses the question that Bonhoeffer raised in the isolation and loneliness of his prison cell: “Who am I?” Paul gives us a clear answer in Galatians. It is a letter that deserves to be heard afresh.

In this study of the book of Job, Dr. Henry Rowold, professor emeritus of Practical Theology, will help participants examine the crisis for faith and ministry that can come as a result of unbearable suffering. There will be close study of the dialogue of Job and his friends, and the attempts of people, those suffering and those ministering, to make sense of the difficulties. Finally, participants will delve into the conversation between God and Job, and the resolution of faith that finally emerges.

If people know anything about Nehemiah, it’s usually the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s wall in 52 days while facing opposition. From this, all sorts of well-intentioned folks have drawn lessons in faithful leadership and organization. It was an amazing feat, to be sure, but there’s so much more for us in this little-known post-exilic book! Come explore Nehemiah like you’ve never done before.
