Welcome to our Winter 2026 Adult Scripture Study
at St. Stephen's, Renton
*Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John*
Following Christ takes more than simply believing in him or doing what he asks of us. Jesus wants you to be more than just a believer—he wants you to be his disciple and friend.
Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John is your guide to a personal encounter with Christ. As the Good Shepherd, Jesus seeks us. He comes to meet us and beckons us to follow him. He calls us to be his disciples, to trust him, to open ourselves to his merciful love, and to love others as he has loved us.
Follow Me invites you to experience the joy of a renewed friendship with Christ. In this study you will learn what it takes to follow Christ and discover the joy of divine friendship.
You will see how God, and only God, can satisfy the deepest desires of your heart.
The Study is January 27 - March 31, 2026.
Each session includes large group prayer, small group discussion, and video.
At registration, you choose which time to attend and give us your small group preference. In the evening, there are 3 types of groups: all-men, all-women, or young-adults (18-30ish). In the morning, we usually have 2 types of groups: all women or coed. Sometimes we have an all-men group as well! You may also request to be with a friend (or two), but please know we cannot guarantee much beyond that, as we work to make the groups as even as possible. Also, we find part of the joy of the study is in meeting new people!
AM Group: Tuesdays, 9:20-11:30 am
PM Group: Tuesdays, 6:30-8:00 pm
Please consider volunteering in a small way. You'll make a big difference!.
