Storyline
St. Luke's has a distinguished history of hosting
 amazing authors and speakers to our sanctuary.  The next great thinker, author, and speaker to visit St. Luke's will be Donald Miller on January 25th, hosted by the United Methodist Men.  His best selling 
Christian memoir "Blue Like Jazz" was made into a movie which taught 
Don about the importance of living a good story.  He now considers it his calling to share the story of God, and help others find their subplot in His story.  His most recent book, Storyline, was written with exactly that goal.  

 

What story are you writing with your life?   

 

- Try this week's "Let Story be Your Guide" on 

SUNDAY JANUARY 19 in E212 

to learn more about who Don is.  

 

- Find & write your subplot during the "Storyline" book study 

WEDNESDAYS starting JANUARY 15th

"FREEDOM!!"
Ever heard someone declare their freedom from debt on The Dave Ramsey show?  
 
Imagine being able to declare YOUR freedom from financial burdens in 2014!  
 
The St. Luke's United Methodist Men will again sponsor Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University classes beginning in January.  FPU is a 9-week class featuring materials that go over such topics as saving, budgeting, debt reduction, insurance, and investing.  You do not have to be in financial trouble to benefit from this course.  Look for registration opportunities and class previews in January.  There is a cost of $100 per family for materials and lifetime membership.   
 
The class begins Tuesday, January 21 in room E107.  Contact Jason at 845-9747 or [email protected] with questions.
