The 2026-2027 men’s Bible study is CALLED AND ACCOUNTABLE- GOD’S QUESTIONS FOR US. The theme is that God’s actions in creating the world and Jesus’ presence and actions on earth initiate a call for every human to be a believer and join them in the Kingdom of Heaven.

God’s call is to a relationship with Him. If we accept the call, we will then be held accountable for our thoughts and actions as we answer and work out that call in our lives.

To help us understand and grow in that relationship, God will ask questions of us, and as we answer them, He will enlighten us so our life will become even more aligned with His will.

The format for each study session is centered around specific questions that God asks us throughout the Bible, each individual answering the questions with the help of the Holy Spirit, and a short commentary. We then meet as a group and discuss and present our thoughts among each other.

In this format, we not only grow individually but can contribute to everyone else’s growth as well. Some of the questions may be difficult, but this is an open book exam- God has given us the Holy Spirit and the Bible as our “cheat sheets” to get the answers that are right for the individual.
