youth have the capability to think deeply and understand
what life is really all about. Youth can understand the
significance of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in their
lives. Confirmation is the time when youth confirm what they
believe and have the opportunity to commit themselves to
Christ's church and their local congregation. We will study
Christianity, explore faith, the United
Methodist Church, and
church membership. Rev. Moore and Steve Joplin will be
leading the class. Please contact the church office to let
us know of your interest. |

“The Case For Christ”
By Lee
Strobel with Jane Vogel
A journalist’s
personal investigation of the evidence for Jesus.
Who was Jesus? A good
man? A lunatic? God?
There’s little question
that he actually lived. But miracles? Rising from the dead? Some
of the stories you hear about him sound like just that…stories.
A reasonable person would never believe them, let alone the
claim that he’s the only way to God!
But a reasonable person
would also make sure that he or she understood the facts before
jumping to conclusions. That’s why Lee Strobel, an award-winning
legal journalist with a knack for asking tough questions,
decided to investigate Jesus for himself. An atheist, Strobel
felt certain his findings would bring Christianity’s claims
about Jesus tumbling down like a house of cards.
He was in for the
surprise of his life. Join him as he retraces his journey from
skepticism to faith. You’ll consult expert testimony as you sift
through the truths that history, science, psychiatry,
literature, and religion reveal. Like Strobel, you’ll be amazed
at the evidence, how much there is, how strong it is, and what
it says.
The facts are in. What
will your verdict be in “The Case For Christ”?
Please confirm your
attendance with me quickly, so that we can
order enough books for everyone attending.
