(March) Experience Life ~ Pete Briscoe
Learning to Follow Jesus in a Me-centered World

Are You a Follower?

Every day, the world screams at us, “You’re number one. Look out for yourself—your own comfort and happiness.” But that’s not what Jesus said. He told us to follow him. And following him means we’re not number one—Jesus is.

In these four sessions, Pete Briscoe explores what it means to surrender to Jesus and the dynamic impact following Christ will have on our personal lives, our relationships, and our service to others. (Book Cost $5.00)

(April) Verbs of God ~ Margaret Feinberg

Where is God when I need Him?

When we look around at the pain, loss and hurt in our world and even in our own lives, we can’t help but wonder, “God, don’t you see this? Can’t you do something about this? Where are you?”

In these four sessions, Margaret Feinberg uses fresh insights and Biblical teaching to study four verbs that Scripture uses in connection with God. When we understand God’s active nature, we realize how God is always active and engaged in our lives. Even when we can’t see or feel him, God is constantly on the move and working.   (Book Cost $5.00)

(May)Out Live Your Life ~ Max Lucado

ENVISION taking an unforgettable, life transforming journey that could reach the magnitude of what happened through the ministry of Peter, James, Paul and the early followers of Christ.

Walking through the first twelve chapters of Acts, we see firsthand how a few faithful people can change the world. It’s a story of simple folk, net casters, and tax collectors. A story of a movement that exploded like a just-opened fire hydrant out of Jerusalem and spilled into the ends of the earth.

And we’re asking, Lord, do it again. Help believers live the faith that resides in their hearts to change the world and inspire them to know that they REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
