Who is the Real Jesus?: How movies, artwork, and sporting events have influenced our thoughts about Christ.
Dr. Bob Long & Rev. Wendy Lambert
(January 29 – February 26)
The earliest movies about Jesus portrayed Him as someone so holy that He was disconnected from humanity. Artwork often shows Jesus as a gaunt, dying man on the cross. The “John 3:16” signs and victorious athletes thanking Jesus for their win are another reflection on His nature. Each time we encounter someone’s image of Jesus, it has the potential to shape our own. It is important we know who Christ is and isn’t. Join us for an in-depth study on the nature of Jesus Christ.

How Long Do I Want to Live?
Rev. Dave Poteet | Room 130 | 6:30 p.m.

Modern medicine has enabled us to live longer and longer lives but how long do we actually want to live? As we think about length of life versus the quality of life we’ll ask that question.

The Power of Encouragement
Stuart Malloy | Room 106 | 6:30 p.m.
“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” Leo Buscaglia
Encouragement means being caregivers of one another. As a hospice chaplain, I observe daily the power of encouragement and how it impacts the lives of patients, caregivers, and family. Through discussion, videos, and life experiences, let’s take a look at the nature of encouragement, the methods of encouragement, the source of encouragement, and the results of encouragement. It might just re-shape our lives and our journey.
Stuart has served in the field of hospice for over 15 years which allows him to take the practical side of religion, healthcare, and theology and to see how it operates in the most challenging condition in our life, our mortality. He is Director of the non-profit, People Caring for People, working with the disenfranchised of our community and world.

Jesus in the Gospels
Rev. Josh Attaway
6:30 p.m. | Worship Center | Livestream | On Demand
(First 5 weeks only)
Click Here to Watch Live – Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m.
Why do we have four different gospels? Wouldn’t it be easier to have just one gospel that tells about the life of Jesus? Did you know that only two of the gospels tell us anything about Christmas? In this class we will explore how Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John each portray Jesus, what they want you to know about Jesus, and how having four different accounts can enhance our faith.

Entering the Passion of Jesus
Rev. Laurie Purcell | 6:30 p.m.
Jesus’ final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with anticipation, danger, and the potential for great loss or great reward. Jesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His followers risked everything when they left behind their homes, or anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read these stories, finding new meanings and new challenges. In Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week, author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine explores the biblical texts surrounding the Passion story. She shows us how the text raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader, and how we all face risk in our Christian experience.
Invitation to John: A Short Term Disciple Bible Study
Troy Reavis | 6:30 p.m.
The invitation from Christ is: “Come and see, follow Me.” Experience the magnificent passages in John including the I am statements (I am the truth, the life and the way, I am the living water and more). Revisit stories only told in John’s Gospel including Nicodemus, Mary Magdalene, and the raising of Lazarus. During the weekly video segments, travel into the scripture as you hear the Word, experience the grand artwork connected with each story and interview the scholar. Each week wraps up with a small group discussion on video to spark your own conversation.
Participants for this Invitation to John do not have to have an in-depth knowledge of the Bible to enjoy and benefit from participation. Reading just two chapters of John a week, they will discover the life altering stories that will invite them to follow Christ as true disciples.

What does the Bible say about heaven and hell? What does it say about science and religion? What does it say about why bad things happen to good people? As part of The Year in the Bible at St. Luke’s we will be looking at what the Bible says about these universal questions and many more. Participants in this class will have a chance to submit the questions they have always wanted to know. Each week we will be looking at one of these questions to see what the Bible has to say about life’s biggest questions.
As we continue our Year in the Bible, we are currently in the prophetic books of the Old Testament. These books conveyed God’s messages to the people of Israel and Judah, delivering warnings, judgments, and words of renewal and hope. They provide a unique opportunity to deepen our understanding of God’s character, His expectations for His people, and His unwavering promise of redemption.
> Play Week 1 Video: Isaiah by Rev. Keith King
> Play Week 2 Video: Ezekiel by Rev. Dave Poteet
> Play Week 3 Video: Jeremiah by Rev. Wendy Lambert
We will be discovering more about the lives and legacy of the kings of Israel, their ups and downs, and how God is present through it all. The pastors of St. Luke’s will share about Saul, David, and Solomon for a 3-week WNA class in April.
There is no doubt that parts of the Old Testament can be difficult to read or understand. Some question whether ancient texts have any value for today’s world. But the Old Testament is the scripture that Jesus taught from and is full of wisdom for us. It is made up of scriptures that inspire, educate, challenge, and transform. Join Bob and Wendy as they explore God’s message in the Old Testament.
Who was Luke and why was St. Luke’s named after him? Why did he write one of the four gospels and who was Theophilus that he addressed this book to? Join us for this study as we explore Luke’s gospel, the unique ways he shares the good news of Jesus Christ, and what this good news means for our lives.
Jesus said He came that we might have life and have it more abundantly. What does that mean? What are the hallmarks of an abundant life? This class will look to scripture to see the kind of life that Christ would have us to live and the tools to live it. In addition, we’ll use the new book, Build the Life You Want: The Art and Science of Getting Happier by Arthur C. Brooks and Oprah Winfrey.
Have you ever wondered why there are so many expressions or “cousins” in the Christian faith? What are the differences and what are the similarities? “Christian Cousins” will take a look into other expressions of the Christian faith and how their worship practices, ministry practices, and biblical interpretations differ from the Methodist traditions and interpretations. We will host guests every week who will share their faith perspectives with us in an interview setting.
Worship is the central practice of the Christian faith. Each week, we gather to worship God. It is a moment unlike anything else we experience the rest of our week. Why do we worship the way we do? What does the Bible teach us about worship? How can we grow closer to God and deepen our understanding of the practice of worship. This class will explore these questions and many more like it. All are invited to come and explore the joy of worship.
God’s everlasting faithfulness endures forever – but God’s love is revealed in an endless number of ways. The Bible has numerous examples of God working in the world through unexpected people in surprising situations. Throughout scripture and history, God has called women and men, the young and the old, the powerful and the weak, the popular and the outcast to show His love in new and imaginative ways. While the world around us tends to enjoy the status quo, Christ is continually doing a new thing. How can each one of us truly share God’s love in new and meaningful ways? Join Bob and Wendy for this Bible study that looks at God’s creativity in showing love.
John’s gospel is full of some of the most symbolic stories we find in the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ life and ministry. The images are full of love, redemption, and life. Join in this life-hanging journey through John’s gospel as we study the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus as John tells it, and learn the lessons that God wants us to know about how to experience life to the fullest in love.
The Book of Job uses the reality of human suffering to help us understand how to see God in a new way. This Biblical gem also helps us make sense of innocent suffering in the world. We live in a broken world that is often painful. Easy and simple answers won’t suffice for these deep questions. Join us as we listen to the wisdom in the Book of Job.
