A Heart Like His: Seeking the Heart of God Through a Study of David,

God will never give up on you. Explore how David's life proves this promise to be true in this updated edition of Beth Moore's best selling book. In this examination of the “man after God's own heart,” David will delight and disappoint you. You'll want to be just like him at times and nothing like him at others. If you've ever experienced doubts, temptations, losses, family problems, or personal inconsistencies, this study is for you!

The Large Catechism
,
Men’s Bible Study, Sat. at 8 AM, Fellowship Hall/Panera
beginning Jan. 5, 2019
The Large Catechism consists of works written by Martin Luther and compiled
The Apostles' Creed
,
The Lord's Prayer
,
Holy Baptism
,
and
The Sacrament of the Eucharist
. The Catechism, along with related documents, was published in the
Book of Concord
in 1580.
The Large Catechism
typifies the emphasis the churches of the
Augsburg Confession
placed on the importance of knowledge and understanding of the articles of the Christian faith. Primarily intended as instruction to teachers, especially to parents, the Catechism consists of a series of exhortations on the importance of each topic of the
Catechism
. It is meant for those who have the capacity to understand, and is not meant to be memorized but to be repeatedly reviewed so that
The Small Catechism
could be taught with understanding. Source:

Immanuel is starting a new series called Explore God on Jan. 12 and 13. Over the course of seven weeks, we’re going to tackle some of our biggest questions about life, God, and Jesus. Everyone is invited—this is a great opportunity to invite friends and family who are conflicted about the concept of faith. Invitation cards are available in the church lobby to help you do just that. If you have questions, please contact Pr. Eric Kennaugh at 630 879 7163 or
ekennaugh@immanuelbatavia.org
