Bible Study and Spiritual Growth

Wednesday Evening Bible Study: The Book of Genesis

This is a Bible study in a series of short-term, in-depth, small-group Bible studies on the design of Disciple Bible Study. Genesis is, in particular, one of the most fascinating Books in the entire Bible, which tells us the origin of the world, of human beings, of sin, and the initiation of God’s salvation.

The participants are expected to do their daily Scripture reading (a chapter or two per day) and take a brief note of the insights taken from the reading daily in the text book. During our sessions on Wednesdays at 7:00 PM, we shall share our findings taken from the daily readings and go over the insightful weekly portion of the text book.

Textbook: Invitation to Genesis by Peter Enns ($15.99 per copy)

Schedule: Total of 10 sessions
