From the book of John CP 5 verse 17. Jesus says, “My Father is still working, and I am working also.” If you are looking to proceed with your journey of discipleship, then be ready to take your next steps with Christ’s reminder. To help you on your transformational journey, God seeks a closer and more intimate relationship with you so that you may see where He is at work and recognize His invitations to join Him. Where He is at work is where you will see discipleship in action. When that occurs, you will experience sharing God’s love with others and seeing His purposes fulfilled. Join us in the Experiencing God course running September 24 – Dec ember 10 from 10 – 11:30 AM and enrich your spiritual life with the Holy Spirit as your teacher revealing the truth of Jesus as you experience God’s love in remarkable ways. This class is led by Mark Sculley. Books are $20. Scholarships available. Reserve your space and your book HERE or sign up on Rally Day, September 13.

The Bible is the most important book of the last two millennia. From sitting at the formation of governments, cultures, and law, this collection of ancient documents has shaped the modern world in ways you may have never realized. However, while the Bible’s influence has remained, central attitudes towards it have radically shifted. Once referred to as “the Good Book,” there has been a growing skepticism and downright distaste for the Bible. This Bible study starts Aug 19th and runs for 5 weeks every Wednesday night 6:30 pm till 8:00 pm.

Some of the questions discussed in the study:
Are there good reasons to take the Bible seriously?
Can we have confidence that it hasn’t been altered, adapted, influenced, and edited since its last book was penned nearly two thousand years ago?

What Happens When We Die? Is death the end? Answers to this and other questions about death—and what happens after we die—vary widely, even among Christians. In Heaven, Hell, and the Afterlife, pastor Léonce Crump brings clarity and conviction to this sometimes tricky, often unsettling topic. Join Léonce in this five-session series and strengthen your faith in the God who defeated death to give us eternal life. Led by Pastor Rick.
This Sunday Bible Study with Pastor Rick starts Sept 20 and runs for 5 weeks from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM.
