Spring 2024 Campus Bible Studies
Each semester Campus Ministries provides Bible study opportunities for the campus community to engage with. We also have many past Bible study resources available for free.
This spring we will be studying the Gospel of John together. Seven weeks of curriculum will be provided beginning the week of January 28 (running until approximately the week of March 24 depending on how many breaks your group needs to take). Curriculum will be posted to the bottom of this page.
Sign up to lead a group here!
We will advertise your group to the rest of campus on this page once you have signed up and will communicate more details via email.
Groups Offered
Check out groups being offered on campus. Contact the group leader with specific questions about the group (example, if a location or time is not listed but you are interested in joining). Signing up is not required to join a group, but is encouraged.
