Men’s Bible Study Opportunities
Title: Monday Night Football Bible Study
Instructor: Rick Raichle
Day/Time: Monday, 7:30 pm
Location: Joe Dumar’s
Begins: September 11, 2017
The Monday Night Football Men's Bible Study will be returning this Fall for its 9th season! It takes place every Monday night during the NFL regular season (for 16 weeks starting 09/11/17) at the Joe Dumars Fieldhouse Grill/ 45300 Mound Rd Shelby Twp 48317. We will meet at 7:30, then afterwards join in fellowship to watch the weekly Monday Night game. Come and join us any week you are available!
Part 1 topic will be: Think Differently - A 10-session Bible study by James MacDonald. This is a study about the way our thinking influences everything we do. This is true even when we are dealing with God and what God asks us to do. We need to ask ourselves what happens when we make decisions or promises, but haven’t changed our underlying thinking. Why do we lose our temper? Why do we tend to hurt those we care for most? If you repeatedly find yourself in places where you don’t want to go, it’s your thinking that’s leading you there. This Bible study on strongholds examines how they came to be… and offers believers a biblical path toward repentance and renewing their minds. In a world constantly bombarded by the fictions of a self-absorbed culture, managing our thinking becomes an even trickier proposition. God offers our only hope for victory over disposition, dysfunction, double-mindedness, and every other mental stronghold. With Him, we can think differently.
Part II topic will be: Horizontal Jesus by Tony Evans. Loving God is a vertical love. Loving others is a horizontal love. Jesus showed his disciples how these two loves are intertwined in practical ways. While our relationship with God is based on faith alone, He warns and encourages us to see that the way we treat people affects our experience of Him. In this 6-session study, you'll learn how to apply biblical principles drawn from several one-another passages in Scripture. In doing so, you'll reap blessings in your vertical relationship with God.

Title: Man Up Men’s Bible Study – “Fight – Winning the Battles that Matter Most”
Instructor: Brian Stump
Day/Time: Wednesday, 6:00-7:00 a.m.
Location: Fellowship Hall
Begins: September 20, 2017
Join us as we explore the story of Samson. We will be reading through his story and utilizing a video series called Fight. This video series will help us uncover who we really are - men created in the image of God with a warrior’s heart - and how to fight the good fight for what’s right. We have a lot in common with Samson, so we need to learn from his life. Join us at 6:00am, enter the building via Door #2, and stay as long as you are able before heading off to work. Starting the day in God's word sets us up for a good day!
