We invite you to join us as we study the first 11 chapters of 1 Kings. We will discover how the book of 1 Kings fits within the greater narrative arc of Scripture, revealing God‘s faithfulness as a promise-keeping and perfectly wise God.

We will meet September 13th through November 1st, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.

We’re called, it seems, to be very different from the world while yet relating wisely to all the differences in the world! How can this be? Join us as we develop a framework for navigating times of division with the wisdom of God.

Join us as we learn together and offer practical guidance for practicing family worship as a gift of God’s kindness in your home.
