Fall Round Robin Discussion Group
Finding God in the Shack
Starting Tuesday, September 19 at 6:30 PM
MOVIE NIGHT ON SEPT 19.
Many of us were intrigued when we read the book and even more when we were challenged by the movie that came out last winter. The Shack has touched millions of readers with its portrayal of a compassionate God in the face of great evil. Some may ask, Is God really like that? Is that really how God responds to evil? Can God be trusted? What, can we learn about God from this popular story? We’ll be asking that in our Fall Round Robin Tuesday Study Group with the Lakeview, Sarona & Shell Lake UM Churches. We will begin Tuesday, September 19 with a movie night, so that those who are unfamiliar with the story can see the film. The next week (Tuesday, Sept. 26) we will begin the study Each Tuesday we’ll start with a time of refreshments at 6:30 to be followed by discussion at 6:45 til 8:00.
Study starts Tuesday, September 19 at 6:30 pm at Spooner United Methodist Church MOVIE NIGHT - This is not considered a family movie as there is content that might be disturbing for children.

We are Christians who are excited to be part of the United Methodist Church. United Methodists hold to the historic doctrines of the Christian faith and have been known for our emphasis on a personal faith, lived out in concrete ways in the world. We value well-informed and passionate preaching, lively worship, service to others and a rich fellowship where people can grow in faith.
As a part of the United Methodist Church Our mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.
Ministry at Home and around the World
Some of the missions we support include: The United Methodist Committee on Relief emergency services, Red Bird Mission in Kentucky, Mujalla Falls Mission Station in Zambia, Harbor House in Superior, Washburn County Food Pantry, Faith in Action, as well as participation in a number of local projects and a monthly free community meal.
