2021 Lent Bible Study

Return to the Lord: A Lent Bible Study

“Return to the LORD your God, for He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love.” (Joel 2:13)

 

All members and friends of Foothills Lutheran Church are invited to join in a six-week study on Mondays at 7pm during Lent. The study will begin on February 22 and continue through March 29.

During this season of Lent, during the Bible study and the Wednesday evening Lenten services, we will consider the theme “Return to the Lord” and examine how the call to return played out in practical ways for the people who walked alongside Christ as He demonstrated and carried out God’s grace and mercy on our behalf, taking God’s wrath upon Himself, setting the stage for God to “turn and relent, and leave a blessing behind Him” (Joel 2:14).

For those who aren’t able to participate on Zoom on Monday evenings, the sessions will be recorded and posted at www.vimeo.com/foothillslutheran, and the accompanying materials will be available by emailing the church office. It’s not necessary to use the registration form above if you plan only to view the sessions on Vimeo later.
