A Word from Dennis Schmidt

Dear Friends,

Several weeks ago, I spoke with Pastor Nathan and offered to teach a short-term Bible study course during Lent entitled, Road to Coronation. He accepted my offer.

Road to Coronation has six units:

  • Unit 1 Royal Background—A record of Kingship in Israel
  • Unit 2 Royal Beginnings—Jesus’ Royal birth to first sermon
  • Unit 3 Royalty in Action
  • Unit 4 Royalty in the Holy City
  • Unit 5 Royal Coronation narratives in Mark, Matthew, and Luke
  • Unit 6 Royal Coronation narrative in John
  • The six-week course will begin after the First Sunday in Lent, with two attendance options:

Monday evenings: March 11-April 8, 6:30-8 p.m. (The first class will begin at 5:45 p.m. with a Lenten supper of soup, bread, and water. Those wishing to provide a similar meal for an upcoming session are asked to contact the church office.)

Tuesday mornings: March 12-April 16, 10-11:30 a.m. (The first class will be followed by a Lenten lunch of soup, bread, and water. Those wishing to provide a similar meal for an upcoming session are asked to contact the church office.) The church will purchase the manuals for this class ($7/copy); participants will be asked to respond at the course’s end with an offering to “pay it forward” for manuals for another class later in the year.

You may register for the class using the sign-up sheet on the table across from the elevette, contact the church office, or call or leave me a text at 440-864-4070.

Peace and joy in Christ,

Dennis Schmidt
