GROWTH GROUPS
Obstacles to Faith
Monday @ 11AM (Begins January 23); Location: Apostles Room (LL4)
God desires relationship with us….and for us to know Him. He has revealed himself to us through both the living Word; Jesus, and His written Word; the Bible, but there are many things that get in the way of us getting to know Him more intimately. This group will examine those obstacles, and give you confidence in approaching and understanding God, and His plan of salvation more clearly!

The Story
Tuesday @ 10AM (Begins January 17); Location: Prayer Room
If you ever thought that you’d like to read the whole Bible from Genesis through Revelation but didn’t have the time or perseverance, then this may be the class for you. We will see that life itself is all part of God’s beautiful, sometimes turbulent plan for humanity. Our text is written by Max Lucado and his associate Randy Frazee. It is an abbreviated version of the Bible that’s written in everyday simple language. A 10 minute video is included each week. We will include some God-inspired fine art and music samples that reflect the culture of the Old and New Testaments. Class size is limited, so register today!
