Join us Tuesday afternoon from 1:30 – 3:00 for “How People Grow” by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.

Yet the issues in our lives and relationships that we wish would change often stay the same, even with our best efforts at spiritual growth.

MEN’S GROUP: “ROMANS” / Kodjo Bossou
YOUTH / ADULT: “We Will Not Be SILENCED” by Erwin W. Lutzer & “Christians in the Age of Outrage” by Ed Stetzer/ John Trucano
Current culture considers biblical faith an expression of bigotry and hatred, yet resorts to shaming and pressure tactics to enforce other views. How do you witness to Christian beliefs without arguing or being intimidated into silence? In We Will Not Be Silenced, Erwin Lutzer offers ways to respond with truth, gentleness, and Christlike love, showing compassion and not compliance or conformity.
Welcome to the new age of outrage. In this groundbreaking book featuring new survey research of evangelicals and their relationship to the age of outrage, Ed Stetzer offers a constructive way forward. You won’t want to miss Ed’s insightful analysis of our chaotic age, his commonsensical understanding of the cultural currents, and his compelling challenge to Christians to live in a refreshingly different way.
ALL: “The Chosen” by Dallas Jenkins & Amanda Jenkins / Sue Sammons
Being chosen by Jesus has beautiful and far-reaching implications—although it says even more about the Chooser than the choices. We are loved because He is love. We are saved because He is merciful. We belong to the family of God because Jesus invites us, making the Bible and all its promises as true for us today as it was for God’s chosen people. What does it mean to be Chosen? To answer that question, we’re going Old school—Testament that is—which leads us back to the New. Which always leads us directly to Jesus.
ALL: “Answers In Genesis” by Ken Ham / Marleen Greiner
God’s Word Is Our Foundation / The Bible is perfect and true, the completely trustworthy starting point for understanding the world. Though our viewpoint is distorted, the Bible gives us perfect wisdom and can change our lives.

Listen! Can you hear thundering footsteps approaching?

Pastor Jeremiah shows you how to stand up to these bullies and win—with God’s help!
