Bible Studies

Discipling Ministry programs at KOG are intended to challenge the mind and expand the heart, as we learn together the ways of Jesus Christ. There are classes, small groups opportunities, and fellowship events to help us grow closer to God and to one another in our life together.

Our life of faith is rooted in the miraculous and gracious promises of the triune God to us in Holy Scripture, and so study of scripture is essential to our learning.

We also learn from the grand, 2,000 year tradition that has confessed Jesus as Lord and Christ, and seek ways to put our learning into action in the world, becoming "little Christs" to our neighbors in need, and speaking out on behalf of the poor and the oppressed in society. At KOG, learning has a very concrete goal: to build up the body of Christ and to proclaim the reign of God in the world.

Prayer Warriors

King of Glory has made a commitment to prayer. A group of members is committed to intercessory prayer. Prayers are raised for our church, its pastors, all of our ministries, the church at large, our country, our President and the Troops, also for all the individual requests turned in on Sunday mornings. We are honored to receive requests for prayer; they may be submitted on the back of the attendance card or called in to the church office A group of Prayer Warriors meets every Monday night from 6 to 7 pm in the Conference Room to pray for all the requests received. You are invited to join us in prayer. This is an important ministry for our KOG family.

Women of the ELCA
