Scripture Study
Jim Collins, Facilitator
Sundays 9:30 – 10:30 a.m.
This group meets each Sunday morning in the library to discuss Scripture. They explore the Scripture’s historical context, the intended listener, what the message was to the people of the time – and then, what the message is to us today in the twenty-first century.
Jim Collins is an elder at The Gayton Kirk and is currently serving on the Session as Mission Co-Chair.

Participants are invited even if they haven’t done the reading. Books are available for free upon request.
