ADULT DISCIPLESHIP AT FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

Reaching Higher “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” (2 Peter 3:18)

Growing Deeper


“There is a Godgiven spiritual horizon that lies in front of us.”

Horizons

T

here is a place where earth and sky meet, a place in the distance that the ancient Israelites understood to be created by God. In the Bible it seems that they viewed it as a place where God has drawn an edge, and they associated it poetically with a boundary between light and darkness (Job 26:10; Proverbs 8:27). Some Bible translations use the term “horizon” for this idea in Scripture. Its association with creation and with God’s creative boundaries in the world calls to mind the order that God originally brought from chaos in the beginning. It was God’s plan from the start to bring heaven and earth close together and to draw us toward that edge that contains this divine seam. As strangely cosmic as this may sound, there is a God-given 2

spiritual horizon that lies in front of us and that invites us continually to stretch, to reach out, and to touch. Of course, God has made it such that we never run out of horizons so that we keep stretching and growing. But we don’t need to worry about reaching God because God has already reached down to us. In Christ, God’s Holy Spirit meets us wherever we are and promises to remain with us for the duration of our journey, never leaving us and always encouraging us. The new year always seems to invite us to recognize our horizons in fresh ways. The arrival of a new year may even spur us on to stop gazing and to begin embracing growth in a relationship with our Creator. God not only makes growth possible, but also invites us into it and facilitates it for us.

Allow the adult discipleship ministries at FUMC to become practical and encouraging tools for your growth. Make the choice to stretch, to reach and to grow this year. Explore your horizon. We hope the following pages of Growing Together will help. As the apostle Peter looked toward the ultimate horizon of Christ’s return, he had this to say to Jesus’ followers: “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). This is how we live toward the future. Choose to join us as we all grow together in 2012! Rev. John Harman Adult Discipleship Pastor

Growing Together on Sunday Mornings

The Servant Class

What’s Happening?

With the Sermon Scriptures through LecƟo Divina

Some Sunday School A‐B‐C’s

A

T

re you looking for a Sunday School experience where you can explore the Bible in depth on a weekly basis? Maybe one that can let the Holy Spirit be your guide? And enhance your sermon experience? A few folks have been doing Sunday School in a focused and deep way that has been amazing in its results. They follow a study process called lectio divina, a timeless practice that goes back centuries in the history of the Church. This is a method of reading that helps and encourages us to open ourselves to the Word of God and to allow Scripture to speak to our hearts. The focus ultimately is on the question, “If I really believe this passage of Scripture, how should my life be different as a result?” This is reading both meditatively and transformationally—in community. This group puts a twist on it, however, by studying the biblical text used in the sermon each week. This is a powerful way for our worship to meet our discipleship and for us to grow deeper together. Servant meets Sunday mornings at 10:05 in the senior pastor’s study (in the main offices). If you are interested in knowing more, contact the Adult Discipleship office at discipleship@sharingtheheart.org and we’ll put you in touch with the leaders.

Faith Connections Proverbs: Building a House of Wisdom

Bridges is a new 10:05 am class on Sundays that will begin the study, If You Want to Walk on Water, You’ve Got to Get Out of the Boat, on January 8. This engaging and practical study by John Ortberg will be a great way to connect with others and to meet the challenges of the new year. Bridges meets in A225. Parents of junior high youth will find the Crusaders class to be a connection worth finding on Sunday mornings. This group was founded last spring as a way to continue the class for confirmation parents (Credo) beyond the sixth-grade confirmation year. This is a group that loves to be together in study and support, and they meet weekly at 9:00 in A250.

n January, the Faith Connections Class will begin the new year in the Book of Proverbs. We will study the subject of biblical wisdom and discover what it means for us to be wise. This book of biblical poetry has much to teach us about building our lives on a foundation of wisdom, which ultimately calls us to live according to the ways of God. Faith Connections will explore what this means and how it looks.

The Genesis class uses biblical and topical study to generate in-depth discussions. This framework enables participants to reflect on how God’s Living Word in the Bible affect our everyday lives. In the new year this class will have studies focused on New Testament Scripture and its tie-in to our daily living.

This class meets on Sunday mornings at 9:00 in Room C210 and is usually led by Pastor John Harman. This community of study is a place to grow and to connect on Sundays, and is open to all.

We encourage you to visit classes and to be connected with us together in discipleship and community.

he Alpha Omega Class is currently studying the question “Who wrote the Bible?” using a video series by that name. These sessions chronicle new research and theological insight into the original writing of the Holy Scriptures. Alpha Omega meets on Sunday mornings at 10:05 in Room A215.


Sunday Morning Discipleship at FUMC

Growing Together in Community Make Bible Study a Part of Your Sunday Morning in 2012

D

id you know that hundreds of adults participate in classes at First Untied Methodist Church every Sunday morning? Adult Sunday school is the church’s largest discipleship ministry and has much to offer for study, growth and fellowship. The 23 regular adult classes on Sunday mornings include large lecture-style classes, mid-sized guided discussion Bible studies, and smaller groups that focus on biblical topics in more personal and informal settings. From inductive Bible studies to topical book discussions to marriage and family-focused fellowships, FUMC has a variety of opportunities on Sundays that are sure to include a match for your interests and style. And, there is always room for you! Sunday school classes welcome visitors and those who just want to “shop around.” The Adult Discipleship

Leadership Team (ADLT) and the leaders of the Sunday classes encourage you to try the wonderful combination of worship and group discipleship growth as a regular part of your Sunday morning experience. Many of the various classes maintain a web page on the church’s site at sharingtheheart.org/adults. There you can see a basic description of the group, the meeting time and place, and a person to contact if you would like more information. Often you can also find a description of the current study and other activities in which the class is involved. At FUMC, we believe that a life of faith is a life of growth, and we invite you to grow with us on Sunday mornings. We welcome your presence and participation as we open our lives together to the transforming experience of Bible study in community.

Horizons: Adult Bible Study at 11:10 am on Sundays The Horizons Class studies the Book of Genesis

T

he Horizons Bible study is one of the newest Sunday morning groups at FUMC, and it meets at 11:10 am every week in Room C200. The current study is a journey through the Book of Genesis, and the group is usually pastor-led. Ron Bentley and John Harman lead the teaching team. Each week picks up where the previous session ended and continues through the book, so it’s easy to find your place and to fit in anytime. In January, Horizons will continue with the story of Abraham and the birth of Isaac, the child of the covenant promise. With Isaac’s arrival, a new chapter in the history of God’s people opens, and it comes with

challenges and stumbles, as well as forward steps of faith. What a wonderful way to begin a new year—a year that invites us to take our next steps of faith and one that is certain to challenge us in both predictable and in unexpected ways. Nursery care is available during this hour, but children and youth Sunday school are not yet available at 11:10. Older children are welcome to come to the children’s area for activities or to bring what they would like to do during this supervised time. If you have questions, email the childcare director, Jane Mills, at jmills@sharingtheheart.org. If you are looking for a Sunday morning Bible study, try Horizons! You are welcome anytime. 7


Growing Together FUMC in the Holy Land

Stepping Stones

Two special classes in January 2012

Young Adult Fellowship

I

S

n mid-January a group from FUMC will set out for a muchanticipated journey to the Holy Land. This bunch has been meeting, studying, praying and planning together in a series of evening classes that will conclude with two special sessions in January—and you’re invited to join in. On Sunday evening, January 8, Pastor John Harman will lead a presentation and discussion, Biblical Archaeology and the Holy Land: Digging in to Understand Biblical History. Because so much of what we know about history in the Holy Land comes out of the ground, this session will focus on how archaeology in the land is carried out, what it can teach us, and what it can’t. We will also identify and look at some of the most significant finds associated with biblical archaeology. (6:15 pm in Room C210) Next, on Saturday evening, January 14, church member and Middle East scholar Dr. Roby Barrett will facilitate a bonus session on Israel and Palestine today. The purpose of this time will be to prepare the travel group with some context and understanding of the current state of affairs and the real people of the Israel and Palestine that we’ll visit. All are welcome to come listen in as we are led by a world-class expert on this part of the world. (6:15 pm in Room C200)

Men’s Morning Bible Study Making Connec ons on Friday Mornings On Friday mornings at 7:00, men gather at the church for coffee and Bible study together to start the day. The discussion study is led by volunteer members of the group and encourages interaction and fellowship as well as praying for needs that are shared. Typically, this large group studies through books of the Bible by reading and discussing a new short section each week. This time of connection and study is open to all men and welcomes visitors and those who may only be able to attend occasionally. Stop by Room B110 (the Parlor) any Friday and discover why this morning study is so popular at FUMC! 8

Current Bible Study: The Book of Genesis

unday mornings at 10:05, adults ages 20-30 gather together for fellowship and spiritual growth. This group is in various life stages of transition, from going to college, to graduating and entering the workforce, to getting married and starting a family. You are welcome to join in anytime to connect and grow with others. Contact Laci Settle Landrith at lacilandrith@hotmail.com or 214-5789116 to learn more about Stepping Stones, or drop by Room A200 during the 10:05 hour on Sundays.

We Give Thanks . . . For Leadership Excellence at FUMC

T

he past year, 2011, was amazing and blessed in adult discipleship ministries at First United Methodist Church. The creative expansion that these ministries have shown and the spiritual and numerical growth that have resulted come as God has blessed the efforts of so many class, study, and group leaders. The Adult Discipleship Leadership Team (ADLT) thanks all of those who prayerfully, capably, and lovingly lead their ministries so that others may “grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). Your tireless expressions of servanthood, your commitments to keep yourselves growing, and your determination to depend on the Lord from whom all blessings flow are a blessing to all of us. As we pray for you and for all of our leadership, we ask for the power and the refreshment of the Holy Spirit to energize you for the new year as we continue in this great ministry of growth together!


Women’s Studies 24 Hours that Changed the World A Tuesday morning Bible study beginning February 21

O

n February 21, an eight-week Bible study for women will begin on Tuesday mornings led by Rev. Janet Cavalier. The study is Adam Hamilton’s series, 24 Hours that Changed the World, which will guide you through the last day of Jesus’ earthly life as we prepare to celebrate Easter this year. This study includes video segments shot on location in the Holy Land as it examines the Gospel stories of Holy Week.

The discussion format of this journey will provide an excellent experience of spiritual preparation during the season of Lent. The group will meet on Tuesday mornings from 10:00 to noon in Room C210. Contact Janet at jcavalier@sharingtheheart.org or 972562-8556 to find out more.

On Wednesday Mornings The Challenge of Jesus

O

ur ongoing Wednesday morning women’s group is studying The Challenge of Jesus, which examines the contrast between Roman imperial theology and Jesus’ revolutionary theology of lordship, deity and peace. The video and discussion series features renowned historical Jesus scholar John Dominic Crossan.

Dr. Crossan believes that to understand Jesus one must begin with Jesus in his time and place, seeing his Jewish tradition and his world-transforming vision from that historical perspective. This study meets on Wednesdays from 9:30 to 11:00 am in Room E215. Contact Patti Churner at pathedy@gmail.com or 469-450-6608.

Through the Bible in 90 Days! On Thursday mornings to begin 2012 On January 5, the Thursday morning women’s Bible study will begin a new study, The Bible in 90 Days. The basic plan of this study consists of approximately 4560 minutes of daily Bible reading, toward the goal of reading through the entire Bible in 90 days. The group will discuss the readings in the weekly study meetings, and a participant’s guide is available to guide your reading and study.

Take an opportunity to experience the big picture of the Bible as you begin the new year. This group is full of heart and a great place to connect. Reading through the Bible together is a wonderful way to learn and grow, as well as a way to support others and be supported on the journey. This study will meet from 10:00 am to noon on Thursdays in the church parlor. For information, contact Vanessa Dry at vanessadry@sbcglobal.net or 972-838-3563.

Personal Bible Reading Reading the Bible for Growth and Strength in 2012

T

o begin 2012, we return to the New Testament to focus on many of the practical questions of the Christian faith. As we do, we’ll also focus on some of the theological basics that inform our faith—especially as the New Testament helps us understand who Jesus is and how we might live practically in the light of his promised return. This will be a season of “letters” for us as we read from the early church’s correspondence and as we learn from their questions and struggles. You will find an amazing contemporary relevance in much of what we read this winter. You will also discover some of the deep continuity between the Old and New Testaments, reminding us that God’s story of grace has been unfolding since the beginning. You can get a copy of this reading schedule printed on a bookmark at the Information Desk in the main church lobby. Let’s read and grow together!
