Taize Services at Trinity - ALL are Welcome
Trinity hosts Taize Services monthly.
Services are at 7:30 p.m. at the church at 2200 N. Bell Avenue, Denton, TX 76209
with the sanctuary open for individual prayer 20 minutes before the service.
Babysitting will be available. For details on the next service, please consult the church calendar.
What is Taize worship? Developed by the Taize Community in France, it is a time
of reflection, prayer, scripture, silence, and meditative singing. The songs are
simple, quickly learned, and for the purpose of allowing us to focus out thoughts
on our Triune God. Even as Taize itself has become a pilgrimage site for large
numbers of people around the world, its style of worship has found ready response
among many denominations.

Faith Story Conversations
By discovering and sharing our personal faith stories, we will search for the relationship between our story and THE story, the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ- --Prentice Barnett and Nancy Secrest Christy, facilitators
Journeys Through Revelation: Apocalyptic Hope for Today
Full of mysterious symbolism, the often misunderstood book of Revelation is ultimately a book of hope for all who are oppressed. Revelation can help guide the choices we make as we seek to live into the renewal that God promises for our world. --Shelby Miller, teacher
Following Jesus in a Culture of Fear
Through politics, marketing, news programming, and popular culture we are taught to fear, often in ways that profit others. But what does all this fear do to our moral lives as it forms (or deforms) our character and our judgment? Drawing on Christian scripture and tradition, Following Jesus in a Culture of Fear articulates a response to fear that resists an ethic of security in favor of fostering an ethic of risk. The Christian virtues of hospitality, peacefulness, and generosity are presented as the way to defeat the counter-virtues of suspicion, preemption, and control. Pastors, students, and lay people will find this unique book both accessible and intriguing. --Paula Blind, teacher
Mid-Week Bible Study
Meeting from 5:30 to 6:30 on Wednesday evening. The group meets for group prayer, followed by Bible study. Throughout the month of August, the book of James is being read and studied. Beginning September 1, we will begin a 23 week study entitled, "Troublesome Bible Passages". Anyone who is interested is invited to attend.
