Join us as we welcome to our pulpit The Rev. Dr. Denise Bell, pastor, seminary leader and former Regional Minister for Georgia.  Be inspired by her insights on faith and community, and her passion for healthy, vibrant churches—bring a friend!

Dr. Bell comes to us from Lexington Theological Seminary where she holds the Donald and Lillian Nunnelley Chair and serves as Assistant Professor of Pastor Leadership.  For 35 years, Dr. Bell served churches as pastor, associate pastor, senior associate, interim pastor and executive pastor.  She was the Regional Minister of the Christian Church in Georgia from 2014-2023.  As a church leader, her enthusiasm in ministry comes from her excitement in seeing lives and churches transformed by fresh ideas and boldness.  As an educator and minister of practice, Dr. Bell seeks to help pastors and congregations increase their capacity to flourish and to be healthy communities of faith in a changing world.  We are blessed to have Dr. Bell once again grace our pulpit and enrich our faith with her sermon.

Did the Hebrew prophets only foretell Jesus’ coming, or did they forthtell God’s righteous will for people living in their own time, a word that Jesus would later Himself proclaim and embody? If the prophets of the Hebrew Bible offered both correction and consolation to God’s people throughout their history, then what do those prophets have to say to us today as we seek to follow Christ? In this seven-week study we will address those questions using Walter Brueggemann’s 2019 wonderful study guide entitled, From Judgement to Hope: A Study on the Prophets. It offers good summaries and commentaries on each prophet, their historical context, timelines, and exemplary passages from each prophet that we will study. The guide is widely available online for $12 or less. Please, order your own copy. If the cost is prohibitive, contact Rev. Brooks Gignilliat; the church does offer scholarships. A guided discussion format will allow free conversation while keeping us on-track and focused on key take-aways. Join us as we read texts that shaped Jesus’ understanding of Who God is and what God expects of His people. The class will meet on-line only on Tuesday evenings from July 8 through August 19 at 7:30 PM. There is no registration fee. However, to receive the Zoom link, you must register by emailing the teacher: ellardw@bellsouth.net Even if you can’t attend live, but you want to watch sessions after the fact, be sure to email the teacher, so that you can receive links to watch the recordings.

We’d love for you to come help serve Mondays at 8am. Ready to eat at 9!

Our recurring needs are frozen breakfast casseroles (if sausage is involved we request turkey sausage), big bowls of cut-up fruit, and ground coffee. These items can be brought to church on Sunday morning and placed in the freezer in the 1st floor kitchen. Contact Brooks Gignilliat with questions.

Fellowship is the perfect name for this class, where members gather in a warm, welcoming space to learn, connect, and share in the abundant grace and blessings of God. It’s a place where relationships are built, both through the class and throughout church-wide activities, offering countless opportunities to grow together in faith. 

The class focuses on helping older adults deepen their understanding of the Bible, its relevance and importance to living our Christian faith. Our lessons explore essential themes like faith, joy, love, forgiveness, and the essence of living as a community of believers. Each Sunday, a rotating team of teachers brings new perspectives, blending historical insights with contemporary reflections, sparking thought-provoking discussions and moments of shared growth. 

Come be a part of this vibrant group of prime-time adults as we continue to grow our understanding of Jesus' teachings and what it truly means to live as a community of believers. 

Sundays | 10am | Room 218

Our Youth Sunday School class for middle and high school students (6th-12th grade) is designed to help teens connect with Scripture in a real and meaningful way.

In this 45-minute session, we'll explore how God’s Word speaks directly to the challenges and decisions teens face every day—whether it's friendships, identity, faith, or purpose.

Through engaging teaching and thoughtful discussion, students will not only dive deeper into understanding the character of God, but also strengthen their theology and build a foundation for navigating life with faith and wisdom.

This class is a place to learn, ask questions, and grow together in a supportive, vibrant community.

Teachers: Rev. Katie Bond & Jeff Bond

Sundays | 10AM | ROOM 215

Logos Men’s Sunday School Class exercises our biblical imagination as we focus on one compelling biblical word at a time. You are invited to an intentional discussion that includes the question, “What does the Word of God mean to us?” Each month we will grapple with how the Word of God is evident in various aspects of our lives.

Sundays | July 13-Aug 24 | 10am | RM 213

When have ever you felt cut off from home, from the familiar, from security and belonging? What buoyed you up? What dragged you down or threatened to turn you away from your authentic self? When the Israelites found themselves exiled to Babylon, God sent Daniel to speak words of comfort and of challenge to His people. Come and hear how these words can speak to us in our own experiences of Exile, on how we can come home to God and – more radically -- how God comes to us even when we are far away from Him.

If you are interested in providing Sunday morning flowers for the Sanctuary altar or niches in memory of a family member, please contact Karen Upchurch for more information. karen.upchurch@gmail.com
