Men's Study Group - July Update

This group is for men who wish to develop fellowship with other faith-minded gentlemen.  Religious-oriented books are often a topic of discussion but the group is primarily focused on camaraderie.  

Meetings are held at 7:00 a.m. every Thursday at PJ Piper's Pancake House, W61 N514 Washington Avenue, Cedarburg. Coffee and/or breakfast is optional but discussion is not.

Using William Barclay’s “Letters to Timothy, Titus, and Philemon” as a guide, the Men’s Study Group will be reading and discussing the letters to these lesser-known men. To distinguish these letters from the other Pauline letters these were written to individuals as opposed to communities or churches.  They are of a very personal nature and thus have been referred to as Pastoral Epistles.  The letters offer advice on the organization of th church and developing relationships within the church.   Regardless of the recipients, the Pauline letters have a similar formal presentation and were all most likely recorded and edited by a scribe.  
 
William Barclay, renowned Presbyterian minister and author served in a working-class church in Glasgow during the depression until the end of WW II.  During those years he became aware of the need to better communicate the books of the bible to “everyman”.  This was accomplished through his Daily Study Bible series which consists of over 40 volumes that have been translated into numerous languages. The Men’s group has frequently used these texts for their Thursday morning discussions.  
 
To reiterate our invitation, we ask men to join us at PJ Piper’s Pancake House Thursday mornings for coffee or breakfast at 7AM for discussion and camaraderie.  You may have heard it before: “try it, you’ll like it;” you would be surprised about what’s written in the bible through Barclay’s writings.
