ADULT GROWTH STUDIES
6:00 – 7:30 pm | Who is Jesus Anyway? | Tom Mangum

6:00 – 7:30 pm | Experiencing God | David Gusewelle | Men’s Study
Room 275A Over the years God has used the truths of Experiencing God to awaken believers to a radically God-centered way of life.

God is inviting you to experience Him in an intimate love relationship through which He reveals to you His will, His ways, and His work.

Room 275B Do you feel awkward, uncomfortable or nervous to talk to your child about their body or where babies come from, or maybe you just don’t even know when or how to begin these conversations. The Birds & Bees curriculum is meant to equip you, the parent of a preschooler or young elementary-age child, with the tools you need to create a plan and have confident conversations with your child about how God made them. Plan to join us this fall semester as we walk through the Birds & Bees Takes Flight curriculum.
6:00 – 7:30 pm (2nd mini-meister Oct 22-Dec 10) | Spiritual Journaling | Women’s Study | Nancy Taylor

Journaling has the potential to be the one tool that enables you to think deeper, know yourself better and connect more closely your daily life with the God of your life! This six-week course will provide you with the why and how of journaling and provide hands–on application of a variety of creative journaling methods.
