“Mercy Triumphs” by Beth Moore
James, Jesus' own brother, started out as a skeptic. In this 8-week class for women, you will see how one glimpse of the resurrected Savior turned an unbeliever into a disciple. Topics in this study include: joy, hardship, faith, reversal of fortunes for rich and poor, wisdom, gifts from above, single-mindedness, the dangers of the tongue, humility, and prayer.
Cokesbury offers two classes:
- Wednesdays at 6:15 PM in Asbury Place at the 9th Avenue campus.
- Sundays at 5:30 PM in McClain Hall room 205 at the Summit campus. Starts Sunday, February 12.
“Staying in Love”-for couples
Falling in love is easy, but staying there, that's something else entirely. With more than a thousand matchmaking services available today, finding a romantic match can be easier than ever. But staying together with the one you've found seems to be the real challenge.
So, is it possible for two people to fall in love and actually stay there? Absolutely! Learn how in this four-session group study using video teaching by pastor and author Andy Stanley.
Wednesdays at 6:30 PM at the 9th Avenue campus in room 622. Facilitated by Clint McBroom.
