Romans Bible Study begins Sunday, March 3 at 9:15am

Are you seeking spiritual growth, community, and a deeper understanding of God’s Word? Look no further! We’re excited to announce our brand-new Bible study focusing on Paul’s letter to the Romans.

Details:

• When: Every Sunday at 9:15am

• Where: Gloria Dei Lutheran Church Fellowship Hall (2600 Ralston Ave, Belmont, CA 94002)

• Who: Everyone is welcome! Whether you’re a seasoned Bible scholar or just starting your faith journey, this study is for you.

• What to Expect:

  • Engaging Discussions: Dive into the rich teachings of Romans with fellow believers.

  • Prayer and Fellowship: Connect with others, share your insights, and lift each other up in prayer. Each class will begin with a time for prayer requests.

  • Spiritual Growth: Discover how the truths in Romans help to give us God’s eternal perspective and can have an impact on our day to day life. The Holy Spirit will work through his Word to strengthen our faith in Jesus as our Savior.

Why Romans?

The Book of Romans is a powerful letter written by the apostle Paul. It delves into essential topics like salvation, grace, faith, and righteousness. As we explore its chapters together, we’ll gain fresh perspectives and practical wisdom for our daily walk with Christ. This masterful summary of the Christian faith that the Holy Spirit inspired Paul to write is densely packed with comfort from God for now and forever!

How to Get Involved:

1. Show Up: Join us this Sunday at 9:15am. No need to sign up—just come as you are! This is especially true even if you don’t typically join in our Sunday morning classes. You won’t be called on or asked to do anything you feel uncomfortable with. If you want to just sit and listen, that is wonderful!

2. Bring Your Bible: While we have Bibles available, it is great to bring your own to jot down notes in or highlight passages you’d like to reference in the future. So, bringing either a paper Bible or a digital Bible on your phone could be a great blessing moving forward!

3. Bring Questions: The benefit of a Bible Class is learning from each other. You don’t need to know all the answers (none of us do!), so bring questions or share them as they occur to you in class and let us all benefit from each other’s insight and wrestling.

Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your faith and build lasting relationships with your brothers and sisters in Christ. We can’t wait to study God’s Word together!

For any questions or additional information, feel free to contact Pastor Shrimpton. See you there!
