BIBLE STUDIES


Experiencing God in Everyday Life Bible Study

Tuesday Night Bible Study-Experiencing God in Everyday Life

DEEP CREEK CAMPUS

Join us for "Experiencing God in Everyday Life," an eight-week study beginning Tuesday September 8 from 6:30pm-8:00pm in the Concourse Room at the Deep Creek Campus. In this study, we will discover that our Christian lives are not lived on the mountaintop but on a winding path of ordinary, often mundane, sometimes difficult days. The Christian life is a daily journey of learning to experience God and follow Jesus. God's story is unfolding as He pursues His eternal purposes in every detail of our world, and He invites us to join Him. This study will help you experience God on the mountaintops and every day between. Everyone from middle schoolers through senior adults are invited to join us.
