Monday Community HomeWord Class
Currently Studying Exodus
Description: The Community HomeWord class provides Gonzales with an in-depth study of the Bible. We have participants from many church backgrounds and walks of life. We use the book series by Bible expert Warren Wiersbe*. Before meeting each week, Ralph McGarity sends out a chapter summary from which he bases the week's lesson. In the sessions, we progress through the Bible, alternating between the New and Old Testaments, guided by Wiersbe's insights.
Your Commitment: By attending these one-hour weekly sessions, you will deepen your understanding of the Bible and of God. If you prepare in advance by reading the scripture and weekly summary, you will gain even more of God's wisdom.
Remote Format: The class is held via Zoom. Participants use a landline phone, a smartphone, a tablet, or a computer to connect. The other attendees will be your neighbors and friends in the Gonzales community.
Both those who are homebound and those who are not are welcome.
Prerequisites and Participation: No prior knowledge of the Bible is necessary to benefit from this class. Your verbal participation is welcome but optional. So, if you are a shy person or feel you don't know much about the Bible, don't worry.
Technology requirements: If you know how to dial a phone, you can dial in and participate by listening and speaking. For a more visually immersive experience, consider using Zoom. Ralph, a recently retired engineer with many years of experience hosting Zoom meetings, will gladly assist you with any technical issues.
Meeting Time: The class meets every Monday from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
