Study Groups

  • Christology

    Christology is perfect theology. It is the understanding of who Christ is in His incarnate person. We will dive into the person of Jesus, learn what it means to have a high Christology, how to read the scriptures through a lens of Christ and Him crucified. Come ready to learn, discuss, and enjoy the sweet, glorious presence of Jesus.

    This group meets in the Bethesda Green Room at 8am every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month.

    Led by Kyle Kienitz.
