"I Am Built: Exploring Your God-Given Strengths"
Description: In the Bible it says that YOU are God's masterpiece. Do you believe that? I'm gonna let you in on a little secret: it's much easier to believe it when you explore WHAT KIND of masterpiece you are. I am talking about understanding your strengths and the unique, amazing way God made you in His image and for His purpose. Let's talk about it.
Join us for our monthly online Bible Study
The Christian Life - Lived Out in Captivity
Next Online Group - Sunday April 28th - The Life of the Christian in Captivity. Many people have Jeremiah 29:11 as a life verse that gives us hope when times are hard. But have you ever read the passages leading up to that promise? It is connected to the Babylonian Captivity and one of the lessons we learned is that Captivity has a purpose
In our next session we will continue examining applications for personal growth (specifically how the Christian deals with fear) with this aim in mind from Jeremiah 29:7 "Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” and we will discuss some ways we can apply this wisdom to our everyday lives as students, professionals, friendships and families.
This will be a practical and helpful consideration of how we can respond to this passage in our lives today. Won't you join us?
