8 NEW SONG BIBLE FELLOWSHIP CHURCH SCHOOL OF DISCIPLESHIP MASTER LIFE CLASS The Disciple's Cross helps believers experience life in Christ through practicing six biblical disciplines. This Bible study helps you experience life in Christ through practicing six identified biblical disciplines: spending time with the Master, living in the Word, praying in faith, fellowshipping with believers, witnessing to the world, and ministering to others. The Disciple s Personality is the second Bible study in the series of four that helps Christians experience life in the spirit and gain victory in their personal lives. In this six-week study disciples will learn how to share their personal testimonies. Topics include: doing God's will, renewing the mind, mastering the emotions, presenting the body, and being filled with the spirit. Additional available resources include leader help and video. Class held in the Conference Room. Tuesdays at 7pm. SEEKING HIM Teaches you to apply the Scriptural Principles of Revival in your life to experience a new level of intimacy with God. Classes will be held in the Sanctuary Annex. Wednesdays at 7pm. SPIRITUAL BOOTCAMP New Christians, as well as all believers, need to know that in Christ we are in a spiritual battle. This journey prepares the new believer for basic training to prepare for battle. Completing new member orientation is just the beginning of your spiritual growth journey into Christ likeness. This class follows new member orientation. Classes will be held in the Conference Room. Wednesdays at 7pm.

9 NEW SONG BIBLE FELLOWSHIP CHURCH SCHOOL OF DISCIPLESHIP MEN OF HONOR BIBLE STUDY Calling all Men! Join the Men of Honor Bible Study, Tuesdays at 7pm. This study will be on Journey Into Following Jesus. This is an exciting, informative study of the basics of discipleship. Most Christians would really like to grow in the area of discipleship, but when they are confronted with taking action in that direction, they become aware of an acute problem--they don't know where to start. This study is designed to help solve this very real problem in discipleship. One important part of this study is scripture memory. This "journey" gives easy, effective tips for memorizing a scripture verse each week. Please see Minister Doug Vincent or him at D.Vincent@nsbfc.org. Classes will be held in the Learning Center. WOMEN S BIBLE STUDY The Women s Bible Study will be held on Tuesdays at 7pm. Journey Into Becoming All That God Wants You To Be As A Godly Woman. The Women s Bible Study from the book of Colossians is short only four chapters but it is a power-packed book that tells us how to become all God wants us to be. Lesson titles include: The Trilogy for Spiritual Growth; Finding God s Will for Your Life; Letting Jesus Fulfill All Your Needs; Having Your Own Successful Ministry; Growing in Christ; Why Jesus Is All We Need; Don t Be Intimidated; Victorious Christian Living; How To Dress for Spiritual Success; How To Have a Happy; Healthy; Home; Working God s Way; Improving Your Communication With God and People; and How To Make Great Friends. When you complete this study, you will have learned to be a woman that is walking in God s will. Please see Sister Brenda Fuller or call her at x14. Classes will be held in the Sanctuary Annex. A STUDY OF REVELATION The word Revelation, Apokalusis, means an uncovering or unveiling. It is the revelation of Jesus Christ. This is not only a journey into the past, but this is a look into things to come in the future. There are many truth s tucked away in this journey that will guide you into a closer walk with Christ. Lastly, this is the only book in the bible that promises you a blessing for studying it (Rev. 1:3). Classes are held on Wednesdays at 11am and 7pm. Contact the Church Office for more information at x10. Classes will be held in the Sanctuary.
