Wednesdays
Breaking the Code: Understanding the Book of Revelation
Begins September 8th
10:45am – 11:30am, Dandridge B
Among the least read Bible books is Revelation. Why? Although the book of Revelation contains passages of great beauty and comfort, it also has passages that strike the casual reader as bizarre, bewildering, and sometimes frightening. Our companion book will be Breaking the Code. As its name implies, this final book of the Bible is a revealing of God’s design for the end times, the crowning work of His plan of salvation begun in Genesis and gradually revealed to us all through the Bible. Led by the Rev. Roger Senechal.

Opportunities Especially for Women
LIFE: Living In Faith Everyday
The Rev. Marcia King
In a LIFE group, women learn how to receive, live, and share the abundant life of Jesus Christ. It is a group focused for and about women in Christian leadership. LIFE is not a Bible Study, fellowship group, support group, accountability group, or a prayer group. It is a combination of all of these and more. We learn together, laugh together, support one another, are accountable to one another, and grapple with issues. The curriculum appeals to the mind, heart, and soul. If you can commit your time and effort to learning more about yourself, leadership, the Christian faith, and building relationships, then LIFE is for you. The next LIFE group will begin in Winter 2010. If you are interested, contact The Rev. Marcia King at 385-2150 x 214 or marcia.king@stgeorgesnashville.org.
Women’s Huddle Groups
The Rev. Marcia King
A “Huddle” is a challenging accountability group. In a Women’s Huddle we:
- Hear stories of God at work in the lives of the Huddle members
- Hear stories of God at work in their missional situations
- See positive changes in character in response to God’s initiative
- See skills develop and flourish
- People grow in self awareness and maturity
- Laugh, celebrate, and have fun together
The key questions asked are: What is God saying to you at this time? What are you going to do about it? If you would like to be part of forming a new Huddle, please contact The Rev. Marcia King at 385-2150 x 214 or marcia.king@stgeorgesnashville.org.
Opportunities Especially for Men
Christian Leadership Concepts
Big commitments most often yield big benefits. Such is the case with a growing men’s discipleship ministry at St. George’s. The groups, referred to as “CLC Groups,” utilize materials developed and provided by Christian Leadership Concepts, a Brentwood based organization. Each group is comprised of up to 12 men andcovers everything from becoming “a man after God’s own heart” to learning how to “stand with a friend” to “reforming our community.” Each group is free to establish its own meeting schedule, though most meet together early one weekday morning for 2 hours. The CLC groups are an excellent combination of fellowship, Bible study, in-depth discussions, and developing lasting friendships. If you’re looking for a way to intentionally grow as a man who follows Jesus Christ, you need look no further.
For more information or to register for a group, please call Larry Trabue at 352-0023.
Other Opportunities for Adults
Community Groups
Do you ever feel like a "lost sheep in the very place where you thought you'd feel more connected to other people? One way to stay vitally connected to others is to join a Community Group, a monthly gathering of friends who meet together for food, fun, and fellowship in one another's homes. Be on the look out for a Community Group coming to a neighborhood near you!
Gifts and Talents
A six-session workshop that helps Christians discover and affirm their God-given talents. Experiences will include Bible study, thoughtful reflection, modest reading assignments, and sharing positive experiences in small groups. The classes will meet twice a week for three weeks. Dates and times to be announced.
Newcomers Orientation
Occasional classes to introduce participants to the basics of the Christian faith, the distinctives of the Anglican/Episcopal tradition, the history of St. George’s, and the shape of a growing Christian life. Watch for more details or call the church office at 385-2150 to find out more.
