(Online) The Psalms: joyful, despondent, serene, violent, hopeful, resigned, faithful, questioning, all this and so much more. Join us this year on our journey through the Psalms—the great prayer book and hymnal of the Bible. We will be using Psalms: A 12-Week Study by Douglas Sean O'Donnell as our guide for this exploration of a book that witnesses to the glory of God and plumbs the depths of the human heart.

(EVENING, Online) By immersing ourselves in Ephesians, a rich treasure house on God, man and our relationship with Him, we will seek to love Jesus more deeply and know God more truly. We will rely on the Holy Spirit to reveal what God is communicating to each of us through our own study with the text itself using our minds, hearts and memories (Scriptures and truths) rather than a study guide. Join us in our hope and prayer to be more excited and empowered to grow in Christ as we develop new skills for looking at scripture. A manuscript-style copy of Ephesians and other scriptures will be provided.

(Online) Let's start the new year finding connection to our entire being - Body, Mind and Spirit. Amy will guide you through a Christ-centered gentle yoga flow linked to your breath, beginning and ending with God's promises through Scripture. Grab your yoga mat, Bible, journal and find a spot in the comfort, convenience and privacy of your home. This is a contemplative, reflective time with a short time of sharing at the end.

(Online) The sermon series this semester is about listening to Jesus to learn more about who he is, straight from Jesus. As we come to know him better, we will also learn how to have better conversations with others to help them come to know Jesus. Join us as we follow along and go deeper with Central's sermon series.

(Online) James 2:17 says, "...faith by itself isn't enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless." James helps us put our Christian faith into action by teaching us to access God's wisdom to face our trials, to seethe power of our words, to look at our prejudices, and to pray. Together we will learn and use the inductive method of observation, interpretation and application to study and journal the truths found in James. You will need access to a few good Bible translations, a dictionary, and a notebook.

(Online) In Fresh Eyes on Jesus' Miracles, author and pastor Doug Newton shares cultural context, modern-day insights and spiritual depth to ten very familiar stories of Jesus' miracles. In addition, he shares techniques that can be used when reading the Bible on our own in order to glean more from the passages. Join us as we seek with fresh eyes some of Jesus' miracles and apply it to our lives today.

(EVENING, Online) Come join our evening small group for the season of Lent (Feb 10-Mar 31, 8:15pm-9:45pm). We will follow a similar format to our fall group, None Like Him. Our time together will allow opportunity for contemplative reflection on a passage of scripture, journaling, and sharing together what we are learning along the way.

(Online) Simon Peter was a follower like us--he wanted to be like Jesus, but he struggled with doubts and fears. At times he failed miserably. At other times he was used powerfully by God. We will be using the twelve-session LifeGuide® Bible Study on the great apostle's life to challenge and motivate us to continue to grow in Christlikeness.
