Finish Strong: Living Free in the Second Half of Life

Details

Teacher: Ornetta Bergstrom, Scottsdale, AZ

Preacher: Pastor Johan Hinderlie, Executive Director, Mount Carmel Ministries - Alexandria,MN

When we enter our senior years we often struggle with our place in the world and the Kingdom of God. It is urgent that we come to know how much God loves us and still has special plans for these years. This is a time when we can begin to seek new dreams that will renew us and give us excitement in the final days of our journey. However, we must recognize the attacks of the enemy and be prepared with the full armor of God so that we can be steadfast to the finish line.

Why is the Beginning of Genesis Good for My Soul?

Details

Teacher: Dr. Marva Dawn, author, lecturer -Vancouver, WA
Preacher: Pastor John Been, retired pastor/bishop - Miltona, MN

Why do people always fight over the beginning of Genesis and use it either to say the Bible is old-fashioned or to argue against the 'liberals' who say that? We can answer both sides with a better interpretation of the book's purposes. Come, and learn to read Genesis in an entirely new way!

Galatians: For Freedom, Christ Has Set Us Free

Details

Teacher: Dr. Paul Berge, retired seminary professor - White Bear Lake, MN
Preacher: Dr. Marva Dawn, author/lecturer - Vancouver, WA

Galatians is known as the Magna Charta of Christian liberty. Martin Luther called Galatians his "Katie vonBora," the name of his spouse, because he was so endeared to the letter. The call for living in the realm of freedom from the law establised the theme of the Reformation: 'For freedom, Christ has set us free' Galatians 5:1

Messianic Prophecies and Fulfillment

Details

Teacher: Pastor Lloyd Wallace, retired pastor - Glendale, AZ
Preacher: Pastor Jim Bjorge, retired pastor - Fargo, ND

Messianic prophecy begins in Genesis and can be traced throughout the Old Testament. We will examine some of the primary themes, but also share many of the ways God prepared His people for the coming of the Messiah. Ezekiel is one the exciting books of major prophecy, so relevant for study today. In a unique time in the history of Israel, God used this man to share the Word of the Lord to a stubborn and defiant nation. Does that need sound familiar?

September 19 - 24 Elderversity

The Holy Spirit in the Gospel of John

Details

Teacher: Pastor Johan Hinderlie, Execuitve Director, Mount Carmel Ministries - Alexandria, MN
