Membership Bible Training (MBT) is a 7-week series, held one night per week, to help you to grow in your understanding of the Bible and basic Christian beliefs. It is also a part of our membership process.
We will work through the book, "Christian Beliefs" together, which—along with bookmarks containing the reading schedule—will be made available at Roots on Sunday mornings for several weeks leading up to the training.
This year, MBT will be held every Friday from April 12 to May 24, 2023 from 7:30 to 9:30 PM.
