Sunday:
SPIRITUAL GROWTH CAMPAIGN 2023
More than ever, we are yearning to find truth in our world and meaning in our lives. While most of us believe that Jesus is the answer, we often forget or neglect to seek our comfort and direction from him. Let’s be reminded that God has provided for us his written word, the Holy Bible, where we will find the answers, direction, hope, and peace which can ultimately grow into our joy of life. Our fall study, The Word of the Lord Grows, will focus us on the letters of the apostles found in the New Testament and how they speak truth to us today as the living voice of God. These words of truth, life, and the way of Jesus not only show us what to do, they also reveal the promise of who we are because of Christ Jesus and our relationship with him.
The Study Guide booklet that accompanies our fall study will have all the necessary information that you will need in order to run your group. We encourage you to take the leap of faith -- trusting that God will lead your group, using you as his helper!
