CI: Fruitful Theology
Sunday, Nov 15 • 6:30p • Fellowship Hall
Theology is not meant to remain abstract, disconnected, or merely intellectual. The knowledge of God is meant to bear fruit in the whole life of the Christian—shaping our minds, our loves, our character, our worship, and our life together as the church.
Fruitful Theology is a special Calvary Institute class with guest speaker Dr. Ronni Kurtz, Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Drawing from his book Fruitful Theology, Dr. Kurtz will help us consider how Scripture connects the life of the mind, the fruit of the Spirit, and the life of the soul. It is not every day that we get to learn from world class scholars like Dr. Kurtz, so don't miss this opportunity!
Together, we will explore how theology forms us as disciples of Jesus. What does it mean to love God with our minds? How does sound doctrine lead to spiritual maturity? How should the truths we confess shape our desires, affections, habits, relationships, and worship? And how can the pursuit of theology produce humility, patience, love, joy, and faithfulness rather than pride or mere information?
This class is for anyone who wants to grow in the knowledge of God in a way that leads to deeper worship and more faithful discipleship. Whether you are new to theological study or have loved theology for years, Fruitful Theology will help you see that knowing God truly is inseparable from becoming more like Christ.
Please note that childcare is available.

CI: How to Read the Bible
Wednesday, Oct 28 & Nov. 4 • 6:30p • Fellowship Hall
The Bible is God’s Word for God’s people—but many Christians feel unsure where to begin, how to understand what they are reading, or how to apply Scripture faithfully to everyday life.
How to Read the Bible is a two-night Calvary Institute seminar designed to help you grow in confidence, clarity, and joy as you read Scripture. Whether you are new to Bible study or have been reading the Bible for years, this class will help you slow down, ask better questions, understand context, trace the storyline of Scripture, and read the Bible as one unified story fulfilled in Jesus Christ.
Night One (10/28) will focus on observation, context, and meaning. We will learn how to pay careful attention to the text, ask good interpretive questions, consider literary and historical context, and understand what a passage means.
Night Two (11/4) will focus on theology, Christ, and application. We will consider how each passage fits within the whole Bible, how Scripture points us to Christ, how it shapes our doctrine and worship, and how we apply God’s Word wisely and faithfully in everyday life.
This seminar is not simply about gaining Bible-study tools, though it will provide practical tools. It is about becoming better readers of God’s Word so that we might know God more deeply, love Christ more fully, and live more faithfully in the world.
Our hope is that "How to Read the Bible" will equip you to approach Scripture with humility, attentiveness, confidence, and joy. Our aim is to learn how to study the Bible, as well as how to be formed by the God who speaks through his Word.
