Adult Bible Fellowships (ABF)

Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.—Ephesians 5:1-2

What is an Adult Bible Fellowship?

Our Adult Bible Fellowships (ABFs) are mid-sized groups that meet weekly to study God's word and be equipped for God's ministry. A wide variety of topics are studied, and groups meet for as short as six weeks to as long as a year.

A Study of Revelation –  Led by VerDale Herman and David Hjelle, Room E -- While imprisoned on the island of Patmos in the late 1st Century A.D., John was given an incredible revelation from God. John recorded this vision and we know it as the book of Revelation, the last book of our Bible. As we read through this book we will seek to under stand what the primary message is. Join us as we study the only book of the Bible which promises a blessing to those who hear its words and keep what is written in it. See why we have such blessed hope for the future!
