Each fall, Highland is pleased to host Biblical scholar, retired Duke Divinity School professor, and much-beloved teacher Dr. James "Mickey" Efird. Dr. Efird typically offers a four week study, each year covering a different book(s) of the Bible. Look for details beginning in September. In addition, as a renowned teacher, Dr. Efird has helped to produce study guides and resources based on his classes for lay people, some of which are available in Highland's Mary Smith Memorial Library.
