The life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ shows how God’s one and only Son provides the only path for every human being to find redemption and reconciliation to their Creator God.

Leading Through Crisis – Self Study Guide

Leading Through Crisis Self Study Workbook Rev 2021Download

In response to the challenges of 2020, a group of Christian senior leaders at ExxonMobil gathered together monthly in their personal time for prayer and to study Biblical leaders who faced challenging situations. The time together was thought provoking, timely, and encouraging for the group, as they sought to lead our company though a very challenging time.

While 2020 is behind us, crisis situations will continue to present themselves in the future. We are all leaders in some form, and seeking Biblical guidance on how to lead through crisis situations is a great source of help. As such, CCEM has put together a self-study Bible Study guide on Leading Through Crisis (though you are welcome to do this as part of a small group). The content of this study has been developed by a member of our community specially for CCEM, and is the same content used with our Christian brothers and sisters in senior leadership. Our prayer is that this content will be edifying for you and those you share it with. We hope you enjoy!

What: New Bible Study on Leading Through Crisis

When: Wednesdays (June 9th – July 21st), from 12-1pm

Where: Zoom

In response to the challenges of 2020, a group of Christian senior leaders at ExxonMobil gathered together monthly in their personal time for prayer and to study Biblical leaders who faced challenging situations. The time together was thought provoking, timely, and encouraging for the group, as they sought to lead our company through a very challenging time.

While 2020 is behind us, crisis situations will continue to present themselves in the future. We are all leaders in some form, and seeking Biblical guidance on how to lead through crisis situations is a great source of help. As such, we will be hosting a 7 week Bible Study on Leading Through Crisis. The content of the study has been developed by a member of our community specially for CCEM, and is the same content used with our Christian brothers and sisters in senior leadership. If you are interested in the study but you are unable to attend the group discussion, we have developed a study guide that you are more than welcome to walk through on your own (or with another small group). Our prayer is that this content will be edifying for you and those you share it with. We hope to see you at the study!

New Catholic Faith Study Beginning in February!

Posted on by

To join the Catholic Faith Study Distribution List, contact Henry Avila.

Dear Friends,

I am resuming our Catholic Faith Study classes via Zoom, beginning February 10, 2021. I pray that you are doing well after a rough year in 2020. I believe it is past time to come together and share our faith again.

This first session will concern who we are as Christians. 

·         What is my purpose? 

·         Who am I? 

·         Is there a reason for all that we have endured this past year?

And much more . . . 

I will send out meeting notes before the class. Pray for me as I prepare for this lesson and I will be praying for you that the Lord impress upon your heart to continue to learn more about our faith.

People of all faiths are welcome to attend. Please feel free to forward the Zoom link.

Henry

Bible Study Fellowship is Back!

Posted on by

Bible Study Fellowship walks through each book chapter by chapter, exploring God’s Word in context. The first 11 chapters of Genesis concern the creation and expansion of the entire human race. The final 39 chapters focus on the family of Abraham (the patriarch of Judaism, Christianity and Islam), and three of his descendants – Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. Through Abraham and his descendants, the redemption of the world by Jesus Christ and the restoration of all creation will be accomplished.  We hope that you can join us for this life changing study. 

We are fortunate enough to have a satellite BSF on the Houston Campus! Study starts 9/15/2020, but join anytime!

To join the Women’s group, please contact Sharon Snoddy at 713-817-2445 or email at sharonsnoddy@att.net.

To join the Men’s group, please contact Bob Bahr or Michael Barber.

“and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.” (Hebrews 10:24-25)

As we continue to battle COVID-19, we know that now more than ever how important it is to Be The Church to each other. We need to continue to maintain smart social distancing as a way to love our neighbors, family and friends, as well as a way to continue battling this disease.
