ADULT BIBLE STUDIES

Knox Presbyterian Church is committed to God's Word. We encourage you to take time during the week to study the Bible; it helps us understand God's character, but more importantly, it’s the most powerful tool for shaping God-like character within us. 

Bible study brings depth to our journey with Christ. Our classes allow you to journey in faith with others who are seeking out Biblical truth and how it applies to everyday life. 

Some classes involve homework, while others do not. Classes are open for all who are interested, no matter what your previous experience is in studying the Bible. You can join a study at any time.

The Promised One-Seeing Jesus in Genesis   January 17-March 20
After the resurrection, when Jesus used Scripture to explain who he was and why he came, where did he start? In the Old Testament. This is where "The Promised One" begins to look for Christ, finding him in the people, promises and patterns of the Old Testament scriptures. With contagious passion and theological soundness, Bible teacher Nancy Guthrie shows how the book of Genesis points us to the person of Christ. Throughout 10 weeks of guided personal study, relevant teaching and thoughtful discussion questions, " The Promised One" will help you make new discoveries of Jesus as seen in the shadows of the Old Testament, apply the gospel found in Genesis to issues such as shame, fear, and the desire for security and significance, and develop your longing for what is ahead when the world is once again made new.   Study by Nancy Guthrie.  Contact Sue Curry with questions.
