Form for submitting Questions online

Some of you asked for an online form to submit questions so here it is.  We will begin answering questions next week.

We will take 1 or more Wednesday nights to answer your questions. There will be a panel of people that will be answering questions to the best of their knowledge. I will not guarantee that every question will be answered but do not let that keep you from asking! Don't ever be afraid to ask questions. 

Remember, these questions are about church, theology, God, beliefs, doctrine, religions, Jesus, the Bible, communion, worship, etc. Make sure you put your name if you want us to know who asked or if you think we might need more clarification. That way we can contact you. You can ask up to three questions on this form. If three is not enough, submit your first three and then click on the link again.

Please be as clear and specific as your question allows.

Names of God and speaking schedule

Sunday mornings we have been studying the Names of God.  When you know someone well you know their name and you know their nicknames.  Throughout the Bible and especially the Old Testament, God has many names.  The more we know and understand these names, the better we will know God.

We've spent three or four Sundays on this and now we're changing it up a little.  We're still learning about the names of God but we're going to be hearing from each other now!

Last Sunday, those present had an opportunity to select a name of God from a big list.  They could choose their favorite name, a cool name, or just close their eyes and pick one.  Then they signed up for a day to present.  There will about 5 students presenting every week through the beginning of December.

*Some people were not present when we chose names.  There will be another opportunity to choose names on the Sundays to follow.  


This is the tentative schedule (with a week off while we're at the Fall Retreat):
November 7:
Payne F. - Adonai
Taja M. - El Emet
Rachel M. - El
Demetria R. - Yahweh Shalom
Dalton V.  - Elah Sh'maya

November 21:
Drew B. - Father
Brandon S. - I AM
Caleb B. - Elohay Kedem
Shelbi C. - Yahweh O'saynu

November 28:
Melissa G. - Yahweh Shalom
Caitlin G.  - El Shaddai
Hannah C. - Yahweh
Hannah B. - Qanna
Kylie R. - Immanu El

December 5:
Lawson S. - Elah Yisrael

Remember: If anyone needs some help don't hesitate to ask.  If you're having trouble finding where it's located in the Bible, I can tell you.
