Weekday Christian Formation

Opportunities to explore your faith and enjoy fellowship with the Trinity community continue throughout the week. The fall 2023 season will begin September 10 and conclude December 17.

Mondays

Life Worth LivingSeptember 11-November 20. 5:30-7:00 p.m. in the Daughters Room. If you have ever asked yourself, “What makes life good?” or “How am I to live my life?” this book study may be for you. God has given all of us The Holy Spirit. God has also given each of us different gifts to be used during our earthly ministry. We will read Life Worth Living (A Guide to What Matters Most) by Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz, and think about the ways we can honor the gift of our time on this earth.  The book club is limited to 15 participants. Reading is required and averages 27 pages per week. The book will be provided. Facilitated by Janie Godbold.

Wednesdays

The Ark Women’s Study Group September 13-November 15. 10:00-11:30 a.m. in the Edwards Room of the Trinity Center. Co-facilitated by Keren Reigel and Katherine Mille.
Women of Trinity (as well as women from other churches) are cordially invited to join The Ark to share our responses to readings, to evolving ideas on spirituality and, often, its relationship and challenge with current events.  We gather in our Ark as sisters, together traversing an ever-changing sea.  This fall, we will study Ilia Delio’s The Hours of the Universe: Reflections on God, Science, and the Human Journey.

The Book of Revelation – begins Wednesday, September 27. 9:30-11:00 a.m. Classroom 114. Email Mopsy Crawford if you plan to attend.
You and I are inundated daily with bold images that threaten to define reality for us, but they are not the full picture. Blessed by Nancy Guthrie tells us the Book of Revelation looks beyond the space and time we know and allows us to see directly into heaven. The beings and events recorded there are startling because they are intended to jolt us out of the complacency we have toward the powerful evils of this age. But, Revelation also reminds us about God’s plan from eternity past for the full restoration of His kingdom and strengthens our hearts with the knowledge that He is in full control of all things.  Order the book here.

Financial Peace University for Young Adults – September 13-November 15, 6:00-8:00 p.m. in the Cathedral House conference room. Join us for Wednesday night supper before class!

Once a week for nine weeks, you’ll watch a video lesson (each one is about an hour long) and then meet as a group for discussions and activities that drive each lesson home. (Aka, the most transformative part of FPU!)
