Our current study is Joseph: Carpenter of Steel by Rev. Gregory Seltz. The man driving the Christmas story in this Bible study is none other than Joseph, the foster-father of Jesus. Join us as host Rev. Gregory Seltz, Speaker for The Lutheran Hour, sheds light on one of the New Testament’s unsung heroes in Joseph: Carpenter of Steel. Adding historical perspective to this study is scholar and best-selling author Dr. Paul L. Maier.
Joseph is a man appointed by God to do extraordinary things. Written by LHM’s Theological Editor and Writer Pastor Wayne Palmer, this four-part study examines the fascinating life and times of this New Testament “average Joe” in rich and absorbing detail. “In researching and writing this Bible study my respect and admiration for our Savior’s foster-father has grown amazingly,” Palmer said.
It might be hard to swallow that your betrothed is with child -- and by the Holy Spirit no less. But that would be only the first of many things Joseph would have to deal with. Beyond that bombshell, there was the inconvenient trek to Bethlehem with the pregnant Mary to fulfill the census, finding a suitable place for the baby to be born, later trekking down to Egypt to escape Herod’s homicidal directive and, finally, the no-little matter of raising the Son of God!
Plan on a Potluck Gathering for our last weekly gathering

Annual Retreat and Service Weekend
Our 2026 Men’s Retreat and Service Weekend was held March 13-15 at beautiful Camp Agapé (1369 Tyler Dewar Lane, Fuquay Varina NC).
Our theme was Equipped to Be a Man of God as Witnesses (Acts 1:8). Three sessions covering: Read the Story, Know the Story, Tell the Story. Led by Pastor Zach Sarrault.
We kicked off Friday evening, March 13 around 6:00 pm with a must attend cookout/potluck gathering at the Retreat House at Camp Agape. (Bring a side dish or treat, favorite beverage, and camp chair.)
Weather permitting, we spent a significant portion of Saturday morning and afternoon in Service tackling projects throughout the camp utilizing multiple skillsets and capabilities.
Our study was woven throughout the impactful weekend with study sessions and devotions Friday night, Saturday morning, afternoon, evening, and Sunday morning. Weather permitting, our study venues were a combination of inside and out. We saw the river, the lake, the firepit, and the chapel. Also weather permitting, we held have an outdoor worship service Sunday morning at the Azalea Chapel.
We have added multiple optional fun activities this year, including cornhole competition, night hikes, and morning trail runs.
Participants had the option to stay overnight at the Retreat House or commute. Our overnight accommodations are optimal at 16 with a max of 24.
Attendance choices were the entire event (preferred), the Saturday service day, the Friday night cookout, or any combination. Just please let Tom Gebbia know. You can RSVP to the RCB invite with comments, email , drop a note in Tom's church mailbox, or call him.
Friends, neighbors, and sons are welcome.
