Pizza Party Kick-off for Kids 4 Christ & FOCUS will be held Wednesday, September 3.
Are we living in the end times? If so, what does that mean for us? These questions can cause confusion and anxiety in the hearts of Christians, but God wants us to be prepared, not scared; informed, not intimidated. Join Max Lucado on an optimistic and accessible journey into what the Bible says about the end times. This six-session series will provide a solid foundation for understanding God's eternal plan and events like the rapture, the tribulation, and our eternal glory in heaven. As Max teaches us, the end of our story is all about hope and all about Jesus. The adult Sunday school class will be studying "What Happens Next: A Traveler's Guide Through the End Times" by Max Lucado. We will begin each class time watching the video on RightNow Media and then go through the study guide that goes along with the video. Study guides are located in the front and back of the church if you would be interested in attending the class. Max also has a book and study guide available if you care to purchase the material on your own. We will be following the series on RightNow Media. We hope you will join us starting September 7. Karen Van Manen and Brenda Terpstra are the facilitators.
