Crossroads Class – January 2025

by Lanie Ebelt
 
Welcome to the Crossroads Class.  We are located in the Family Life Center on Sunday morning at 9:45 until 10:45. We are a class of multi-generational ages and backgrounds which make us very diverse and interesting!
 
Our teacher is Gary Anderson.  We do not follow a printed lesson, but Gary gives us what God has laid on his heart to teach which is usually a book of the Bible.  We were in Genesis for the 40 years the Jews wandered in the wilderness!  But it was fun to be with them each step of the way.  Gary has a unique way of tying together Biblical history and American history at the same time.  We have learned a great deal about our fore-fathers and the part God played in our country from the beginning.  From time to time when Gary has to be away from class, we have other teachers who fill in for him.  
 
We are a very loving and friendly group even though we have a large enrollment.  And more importantly than that, we are a strong praying group.  We send out prayer requests each Sunday afternoon that people have asked for that morning.  If needed from time to time, special requests go out during the day sometimes everyday with updates, too.  We try to keep the requests covered in prayer!
 
I am Lanie Ebelt, Director of the class.  I do my best to keep all things flowing in a smooth manner so that on Sunday morning, Bible study and fellowship is what can be focused on.  I am open to hearing what you have to say as a suggestion and will try to work on what might be requested.  But I will not promise it will happen.  It is my philosophy that you try our class and then try the other classes that Trinity has to offer.  “Go where you are fed” is my motto.  
 
We would enjoy having you come and try us out and see if it is a fit.  We do like to party from time to time but find that we are quite busy with family and travel.  I encourage you to find your time of worship, your Bible study class, and then your place of service here at Trinity Baptist Church!

Joyseekers Class – January 2025

by Sharon Purswell
 
Greeting everyone with wishes for A Happy New Year from the Joyseeker’s Class!
 
My name is Sharon Purswell and my husband, Randy and I, are members of the Joyseeker’s Class and have been for almost 10 years. If you’re new to Trinity, or are not yet part of a Bible Study group, we’d like to invite you to check us out. We’d love the opportunity to meet you. We meet in Room 224 just above the Gym/Family Life Center.
 
We have three great teachers who rotate weekly and whose teaching styles are very diverse. Our study materials are taken from study manuals which promote and invite interactive discussions.
 
As long-time members of this amazing class, we have learned that it is a class filled with true prayer warriors who are full of compassion and love. If you visit us, the very walls in our classroom indicate signs of the love of those within this group. You might come to learn that “We’re family” and we’d love having you join us. We pray for each other, socialize together whether one-on-one or in a group setting in homes or just hanging out with each other. We generally look after each other’s needs. We’re folks who enjoy the study of God’s Word together, enjoy sweet fellowship together and have fun & laughter all along the way!
 
Look forward to meeting you soon!

Genesis Class: A Transformative Bible Study Experience

by Dale Moreau
 
Are you ready to dive deeper into the Bible and truly understand its meaning? The Genesis Class is here to help you do just that! Whether you’re a teenager, young adult, husband, wife, or seasoned Bible reader, our class welcomes everyone eager to explore the Scriptures in a fresh and exciting way.
 
Unlike traditional Bible study classes, our approach goes beyond rote memorization or becoming a scholar in Greek and Hebrew. We emphasize understanding the meanings of the biblical languages in a practical way. You will learn to pose insightful questions, identify flawed interpretations, and seek comprehensive explanations that resonate on a deeper level.
 
Imagine reading a Bible verse you’ve memorized, like Ephesians 2:8-9: “For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” Have you ever wondered, what exactly is the gift of God? Is it grace, faith, or something else? Our class will guide you through questions like these, helping you uncover the true meaning behind the words.
 
We recently finished our study of the Book of Revelation and before that the Book of Genesis and are now excited to begin a new journey: What is the Gospel and What is Salvation? This study is unlike anything you’ve experienced before!
 
Join us in room 217, upstairs near the elevator, in the new building. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to grow in your understanding of the Bible and enrich your faith.
 
We can’t wait to see you there!

Prime Time Adult Ministries

by Don Francis
 
Prime Time adult ministries is typically geared toward our senior adults 55 and up but all are welcome.
 
Genesis 1 Hikers – This is a fun, physical, once a month activity in which we travel to a state park, cavern and other points of interest in our area. It is open to all ages depending on their abilities to maneuver rough terrain at times. We try to keep our hike on easy to moderate trails. We do not meet June through August because of the heat. May and September, we try to go to caves and caverns to avoid the sun and heat. It provides a great time to fellowship and enjoy God’s wonderful creation. April finds us at Inks State Park for the blooming bluebonnets and Lost Maples State Park in November for the leaf color change. We leave the church at 8:30am, returning around 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon. Most hikes we take a sack lunch, but if there is a fun restaurant nearby, we will stop for a “Dutch treat” lunch.
 
Prime Time Game Day – The excitement happens throughout the year on the first Monday of the month (holidays move to the second Monday). It is a great time of fun and fellowship. We start at noon with a sack lunch and gaming begins soon after. We have a great time playing Mexican Train, Rummikub and 42. We meet in the church Café and play until 3:00. Bring your favorite game and join us! 
 
Prime Time Dinners – Our senior adults have activities throughout the year except June, July and August. We try to have a potluck every other month. They usually consist of a theme that is helpful and of special interest to senior adults. Sometimes we have special music or just a time of singing and giving praise to our Lord and Savior. Occasionally the church will provide the main course, and we bring a side dish or dessert. We have been known to have a Ray Stevens impersonator singing the Great Mississippi Squirrel Revival and our very own church quartet! Don’t miss our food, fun, and fellowship. ENCORE is a special two-day version of our Prime Time dinners which is held each May.
