MEN’S BIBLE BREAKFAST
1st & 3rd Thursday Mornings in the Church Fellowship Hall | 6:30 to 7:30am
NOTE: For a change of pace, we will be meeting for a time at Sami’s Family Restaurant on the corner of 7th & Duquesne. Join us!
Be a part of the Immanuel Men’s Group! Guys from our church, school, and community gather on Thursday mornings from 6:30 to 7:30am for strong coffee, a tasty breakfast, and God’s Word to start their day off right. Our men’s ministry is always happy to welcome guests and new regular attenders to our bible study group.
In addition to Thursday morning Bible Breakfasts, the Immanuel Men’s Group regularly gathers to help those who are in need—taking on projects from lawn work and home repairs to cleaning up after storms and helping to rebuild lives.
If you’re a young man, old man, or somewhere in between, you are invited to be a part of Men’s Ministry at Immanuel Lutheran in Joplin!

Jesus Said What? by Christopher M. Kennedy
Bringing Clarity to 15 of Jesus’ Most Difficult Teachings
Jesus doesn’t always tell you what you want to hear. But He always tells you what you need to hear, and even the hard words are a gift given to you in love.
In Jesus Said What?, author Christopher Kennedy tackles some of Jesus’ words that people may struggle to understand. It may seem easier to avoid some of Jesus’ tough sayings, but instead of shying away from these passages, Kennedy urges readers to look to Scripture to understand Scripture.
As the Ten Commandments are connected with the words of Jesus, Kennedy demonstrates the Law, but reminds Christians to stay firmly focused on the forgiveness and grace that comes through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He brings clarity to fifteen of Jesus’ most difficult teachings, on topics such as money, family relationships, and consequences for sin. Each chapter explores one teaching of Jesus by looking at His full treatment of the topic, parallel passages throughout the Bible, and the biblical context to help readers come to a faithful and faith-enriching understanding of Jesus’ words.
