Marilyn Moore - Adult Bible Teacher
Marilyn has been a teacher for many years. For 18 years she was an elementary teacher in the public school system. After she gave her life to the Lord in 1976, she quickly began to have a burden not only for children's education but for biblical education as well. In the early 1980's she started a young women's bible study which met from home to home. Many lives were changed during that season & new visions were planted in her heart for not only women, but for whole families.
In 1988, her first grandchild was born, & by the year 1997, she had seven grandchildren. When her oldest grandchild was kindergarten age, she started helping home school him & went on to home school four of her seven grandchildren until they were in their early teens.
Throughout the years, Marilyn has been an avid student of the Word of God. She has spent many hours memorizing scripture because of the positive effects it has had on her mind. In her late 20's & early 30's she struggled with depression & hopelessness. After her surrender to Christ, she discovered the quickening power of memorizing & quoting the scriptures she had learned. It has brought her confidence & strength in areas of her life that she didn't have naturally from childhood. From these experiences, a passion to teach others & see them benefit from the power of God's Word is her motivation.
She has now been teaching the Wednesday night adult bible study for the past two years. Not only does she use a curriculum, but her faithful digging for hidden wisdom & treasures of in-depth knowledge concerning each subject has been an exciting adventure for her class each week.
Her husband, John, also helps her with her class with years of wisdom & experience from living a faithful life with the Lord.
John & Marilyn are the parents of Pastor Julie Petersen (husband, Pastor Bob Petersen) & the grandparents of Micah, Caleb, Seth, & Levi Petersen. They also have a son, Jeff Moore (wife, Susan Moore) & are grandparents to Keli, Cameron, & Andrew Moore.
