At Good Shepherd we believe that getting to know each other and having fun together helps build a deep sense of community.
If you have ideas for bringing adults together for life-long learning or social events, please email them to admin@goodshepherdigh.com
Learning Opportunities
At Good Shepherd, we think developing faith is a life-long journey. Therefore, we offer Bible Studies and other Educational Experiences throughout the week for children, youth and adults. These educational opportunities are designed to challenge, stretch and deepen faith, as it is lived out in our homes, workplaces and world.

Book Club
Tuesday Evenings, 6:30-7:30
September 13, 20, 27, October 18, 25
The Social Ministry Team invites you to join us in discussing Eugene Cho’s book “Thou Shalt Not Be a Jerk; A Christian’s Guide to Engaging Politics”. We will meet in person and on zoom. Please purchase the book in advance.
“In our extremely polarized political climate, “Thou Shalt Not Be a Jerk” equips us to engage with politics while staying rooted in Christlike discipleship. Drawing on biblical and historical examples, Pastor Eugene Cho explores how to find points of agreement and work for the common good, the difference between being passionate and being mean spirited, why politics are an expression of our relationship with Christ, and ways to listen to each other, especially the vulnerable.”
Events
It is our goal to create opportunities for Adults of all ages to learn and grow in their faith through learning opportunities and social events.
