Disciples of Jesus Christ are on a lifelong quest to develop a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. As Presbyterians, we believe that this relationship happens as we study, discuss, struggle and embrace scripture with other Christians. Therefore, Covenant provides opportunities for all ages to interact with scripture in ways that will transform lives. We are committed to the words of the Great Commission:
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:19-20

BIBLE STUDY : "Mysteries of Creation: Biblical and Scientific" This class was presented by Bowman and Judy Davis. Judy presented the biblical aspects of the study and Bowman presented the scientific. Bowman is retired as Professor Emeritus of Biology at Kennesaw State University and Judy has been a Bible teacher at Covenant for many years. The goal of this Bible Study was to show that the biblical and scientific accounts of creation need not conflict but actually converge. The Bible study was very well attended and we are grateful for Judy and Bowman’s hard work in their service of Covenant and God.
Ladies’ Bible Study meets on the third Wednesday of the month from 10:30 to 12:00 in Room 1 of the Educational Building. We will continue the topic on “Women of the Bible”. We welcome neighbors and friends. Our meetings consist of sharing our blessings, our prayer requests, prayer, and Bible Study.
BIBLE STUDY SEPTEMBER-NOVEMBER
Dr. Iain Inglis presented the Bible Study Series: Signs to Life, teaching us about Jesus’ miracles and signs found in the Gospel of John. We are grateful for this six-week class in which Dr. Inglis gave us some new insights which strengthened our relationships with God. Many of his students were heard to ask, “when is your next Bible Study?”
