Forgiving What You Can’t Forget Posted on October 23, 2023 by Scott This video Bible study with bestselling author and teacher Lysa TerKeurst (video streaming included) is for those of you who have been hurt by others, who feel stuck in a cycle of unresolved pain. Forgiveness is a major part of the Christian faith. We know God commands us to forgive each other. But, apart from simply saying the words, “I forgive you,” many of us have unasked questions about it: · How does it work? On our minds, souls, circumstances—what’s actually happening when we forgive?· Why is it so important, and what’s the difference between forgiveness and simply moving on?· When should I forgive, and are their exceptions?· How can I find healing for myself, even if my act of forgiveness doesn’t seem to change the person who hurt me?October 31 Introduction and Week 1November 07 Week 2November 14 Week 3November 28 Week 4December 05 Week 5December 12 Week 6December 19 Evaluation and Christmas FellowshipBooks are available at Amazon:
Death and Life – Students Posted on October 11, 2023 by Scott For the next two weeks (October 11 and 18), we’re looking at the death and life of Lazarus (not “life and death,” because that’s mixing up the order!) Sometimes situations don’t go the way we expect. But, the amazing power of God is able to resurrect any dead situation and breathe life into any circumstance.

Tuesday Ladies – The Sermon on the Mount Posted on February 28, 2023 by Scott Our next Bible Study will be The Sermon on The Mount by Jen Wilkins.[ Please Purchase Your Book on Amazon ] What does it mean to be a citizen of the kingdom of Heaven? The Sermon on the Mount articulates what the life of a Christ-follower should look like, asking us the same questions it posed to its original hearers: How should a disciple relate to sin? To others? To the Law? How does a disciple think, speak, and act? Examine the word of Jesus in-depth as He challenges us to think differently about repentance, salvation, and sanctification. Matthew’s gospel opens with three chapters containing Jesus’ longest recorded message – a sermon given to His disciples early in His ministry to articulate what the life of a Christ-follower would look like.
