Churches know that small groups are key to spiritual formation and vitality in their congregations. Yet many are floundering for lack of small group leadership, especially when it comes to leading Bible studies. We can help you change all that.
Exploring the Bible: The Dickinson Series is a proven Bible study system that even those who know little about the Bible can learn to lead. But we go beyond just introducing you to that material.
In this six-hour workshop, you will:
*All workshop participants receive a free copy of both the student book and leader's guide for What Is the Bible? (The first course of Exploring the Bible: The Dickinson Series)
The workshop is facilitated by Rev. Anne Robertson (right), a United Methodist minister, who is currently serving as executive director of the Massachusetts Bible Society. She is a graduate of the Candler School of Theology at Emory University, the author of three books and The Dickinson Series: Exploring the Bible. Rev. Robertson has won the Wilbur C. Ziegler Award for Excellence in Preaching. She is a popular preacher, speaker, and workshop presenter. She is online at www.annerobertson.org.
Cost is $25.00 per person and online pre-registration is required.
Questions about registration can be directed to Cindy Bolton at boltonc@macucc.org or by calling the Mass. Conference at 508-875-5233.
