The Hole in Our Gospel: Six Week Quest
This DVD-based six week journey will inspire and challenge us to expand our personal faith into a public and transforming faith as we see God’s heart for the poor and respond with wholehearted obedience to the gospel. Examples are given of numerous Christians who creatively use their influence, skills, and money to aid God’s people who are in need, and we are encouraged to do the same as we ask the question, “What can I do to make a difference in the lives of others?”
Start date: 6-week study groups will start the end of August.
Day/time: Groups will form for various days/time during the week.
Where: Groups will meet either at the church or in a local home.
Cost: $10 for the study materials
