They connect with each other through sharing life updates and prayer concerns each week.

There is a Zoom link option if a person is not able to attend the meeting in-person. If you have questions or would like to check out the group on Zoom, please email adultministries@sotv.org. Facilitated by Tom Ditlefson and Rolf Schulz.
Currently studying: "Unveiling Empire: Reading Revelations Then and Now" by Anthony Gwyther and "Wes Howard-Brook, (Foreword)" by Elizabeth McAlister. Unveiling Empire offers a new entrée into this troubling and controversial book of the Bible by examining the roots and social purposes of apocalyptic literature and Revelations own use of traditional imagery. In this way, the authors provide readers with the tools for deciphering the texts message — and its urgent applications for Christians today living amidst a new kind of "empire."
Wednesday Evening Men's Bible Study (online)
Weekly, 6:00 – 7:00 PM (September – May)
This "proudly nerdy" group meets weekly on Zoom and loves to dig into the context and nuance of scripture using the "Master Builders Bible for Men." Conversation is engaging and supportive, with lots of space for curiosity and deep discussion, but no room for partisan politics. New attendees are welcome at any time. For more information and to receive the Zoom link, please email adultministries@sotv.org. Facilitated by Bill Kamp.
Currently studying: the Biblical book of Hebrews.
Friday Morning Men's Book Discussion (online)
Weekly, 7:00 – 8:30 AM (year round)
Reading a chapter a week aloud together, this group works their way slowly through books that invite questions and conversation about faith and life. Participants are skilled at creating a safe space to share and listen to one another, and they appreciate hearing from perspectives that both mirror and differ from their own. Members of the group might join the conversation from the comfort of home and while on the road for work or vacation. They welcome newcomers any time! For more information or to request the Zoom link email adultministries@sotv.org. Facilitated by Ken Syverson.
Currently studying: "The Tears of all Things" by Richard Rohr. This book seeks to answer how do we live compassionately in a time of violence and despair.
