Bible Study

Bible Study

Bible Study with Pastor Jeff continues every Monday at 1:00 p.m., in the Fellowship Room.  All are welcome to join our circle at any time.

Our study focuses on taking the Bible seriously, but not necessarily literally.  We believe the Bible is a love letter from faithful people of God to other faithful people of God, and is therefore full of rich metaphor and deep meaning.  We use the original languages and other contemporary literature for comparative studies, also employing wide-ranging scholarship to understand the Bible as a living and vibrant story of the people of God.  Our studies are interactive and full of dialogue as we work together to discern and unfold the meaning of these ancient passages for us today.

Finally, we do not hold any particular interpretation of the Bible as "right" or "wrong," but rather believe that God will uncover the meaning of scripture to us in prayer and in communal discernment, with each generation of God’s people rediscovering the Bible’s meaning in our own particular time and place. 


"Moment for Mission" tells about SGC volunteers who always carry with them the prayers and financial support of the congregation. We are an Open and Affirming congregation welcoming persons of any age, race, sexual orientation, nationality, economic circumstance, or physical or mental ability.  "God accepts all the people...so do we."
