Reading Scripture: Yesterday and Today — in the main building, room A128
“The words of scripture . . . become a reality only when they touch the minds and hearts of sentient beings, according to the different needs of each.” Karen Armstrong, The Lost Art of Scripture, p. 201.) We will Read Scripture, recognizing that it comes from Yesterday and comes to us Today, treating us all to “an honor and a joy, an inner necessity and a gracious privilege to serve and therefore” to hear the Word of God. (K. Barth, Church Dogmatics, Vol. I, Part 2, p. 852-53.)

Iron Sharpens Iron Wednesdays — Wednesdays at 6:30 PM in the CLC, room B103/B104
Iron Sharpens Iron, Wednesday is a men's Bible study group. We try to pick subjects and studies that can be traditional or view Jesus as others might have viewed him at that time. Our goal is to create a close knit group who can share views and opinions openly and freely, supporting one another through prayer. Contact Keith Thomas at keithbthomas007@gmail.com.
Iron Sharpens Iron Saturdays — Saturdays at 8:00 AM in the CLC, room B017
The Saturday morning Iron Sharpens Iron men's group meets each weekend for a free-flowing discussion of our current book chapter, as well as sharing prayers and concerns. There is lots of back-and-forth banter and lots of brotherly love! Contact Ed Tharrington at etharrington@gmail.com.

Women of the Word — 2nd/4th Tuesdays at 7:00 PM in the CLC, room B017
When daylight savings time starts, we plan to go to Zoom.
Prayer, fellowship, mission opportunities and bible study are important to the diverse women of WOW. We are in various stages of our lives. WOW ladies are wonderful examples of using their hands and feet to be followers of Christ in the community. WOW currently provides lunch for WFPC’s Good Friday Luncheon, collect food, clothing and toiletries to support missions of WFPC and beyond. We maintain the garden area at the main CLC entrance. Ladies have supported a couple of Ukrainian refugee families with household items. We hope to continue providing Christmas stockings to the Raleigh Women’s Center. Join us and see why studying the bible has never been so much fun.

Perspectives — meetings days and locations vary
Using a book club format, we read and discuss a variety of books that help us see and understand the perspectives of a range of people. Topics of past books have included racial and social justice, immigrant experiences, and ways that the church can better embrace those who typically feel excluded. Contact sharonline@nc.rr.com.

A Deeper Dive into Matthew 25! -- October 6-November 3, Sunday evenings, 5:00 – 6:00 p.m. in the CLC, room B103/B104
This group will gather to explore, study, and unpack a summer's worth of tough topics and conversations... what is the church's role in all of this, and how do we not simply walk away from the topics of racism, poverty, and vitality because the summer sermon series is over? Come join this group to determine how we continue to live into our listening, learning and understanding. Contact katherinepeiper@wakeforestpres.org
