Currently Studying: Psalms

Celebrating 50 Years of Community Bible Study!

This year marks the 50th Anniversary of Community Bible Study (CBS) — fifty years of discovering God’s truth together through His Word! To celebrate this milestone, all CBS classes are studying the Book of Psalms — a completely new study written especially for this anniversary year, and it has been nothing short of phenomenal.

The Psalms are a beautiful collection of songs, prayers, and poems that express the full range of human emotion — from deep sorrow to overflowing joy — all centered on a heart of worship and trust in God. Through this study, participants are discovering how the Psalms lead us into deeper intimacy with the Lord, reminding us that He is faithful, near, and worthy of praise in every season of life. Come be part of this special year and experience how God is speaking powerfully through His Word at CBS!

Agape

Agape, part of Community Bible Study, is an in-depth Bible Study for adults with intellectual disabilities. We study God’s Word together and share God’s love. Each week we gather to learn about God's Word by studing Scripture verse-by-verse. This is all done through lively and engaging conversations, fun activities and lots and lots of laughter! You will grow closer in your relationship with Jesus and make many friends along the way. As a Community Bible Study participant, you are a part of a loving and caring community of those seeking after God’s own heart.
