Avondale Pattillo UMC
Bible Study Program
"If
you make my word your home you will indeed be my disciples."
--John 8:31 [The Jerusalem Bible]
The
Disciple Bible study program is sponsored by the United Methodist
denomination, but is open to all interested persons. Participants
commit to nine-months of intensive study and discussion.
The basics of Christian Discipleship (GBOD)
"Disciple
is not about the church; it is not even about the individuals who participate. It is about the
activity of God in creation."
-- Neil Alexander, president, United Methodist
Publishing House
The aim is for groups of twelve to study Bible sections, then meet weekly to discuss them and to view a videotape of information pertaining to that week's studies. Weekly sessions are scheduled to be two-and-a-half hours in length. A trained leader keeps the groups focused and leads discussions.
Avondale Pattillo UMC has in the past offered Disciple I, "Becoming Disciples Through Bible Study", and Disciple II, "Into the Word; Into the World". Disciple I is a survey of the Bible. Disciple II is an in depth study of Genesis, Exodus, Luke, and Acts.
We have also held the "Christian Believers" study program.
