1. BAREFOOT CHURCH
LEADER: Dave Kuntz (
dave@northchurchstl.com)
DESCRIPTION: The Church is called to fight poverty, injustice and oppression in our world, but for many of us we have no clue where to begin or how to make that happen. What does it look like to love mercy, to seek justice, and our call to religion that is "pure," fighting for the orphan and widow? Join us for a very practical approach of learning to serve and live on mission through community. A $15 study guide will be needed. Purchase the book here -

LOCATION: TBD

2. BREAKING FREE - WOMEN'S STUDY
LEADER: Amy Kuntz (
kuntzamy@gmail.com)
DESCRIPTION: Is freedom in Christ a reality in your life? Isaiah 61:1-4 portrays the heart of our God to see His people "bring good news to the poor, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to captives, and an opening of prisons to those who are bound." When Christ called believers to abundant life he intended for us :: 1) to know God and believe him 2) to glorify God 3) to find satisfaction in God 4) to experience God's peace and 5) to enjoy God's presence. Breaking Free is an in-depth Bible study that will help us to identify strongholds and teach us how to walk in the Spirits power to remove obstacles that hinder our relationship with God and the abundant life He intends. Together we'll journey through the Scriptures to discover the transforming power of Christian freedom. This 11 week study draws parallel between the captive Israelites and today's believers. A study guide is needed and can be purchased for $15 here -

4. LIVING IN VICTORY
LEADERS: Jeff Brockmeier (
jeff@northchurchstl.com) and Ben Hammond (
hammond080183@yahoo.com)
DESCRIPTION: In Paul's letter to Timothy he challenges Christians to "take hold of the eternal life to which we were called." In this study we will examine many passages and talk about how we can live in the hope that is found in Christ. There will be focus and discussion on how we feel God is transforming us. Many times it is easy to be focused on the struggles of life; however, 1 John 5, tells us that through believing in Jesus we have overcome the world. Join us on Wednesday nights as we run hard in the gospel.
TIME: Wednesdays @ 6:30pm
LOCATION: Hammond's
