Sunday Night Bible Study!
Tonight at 5:00pm in the Church sanctuary. Childcare will be provided in the MAC.
The study is “Every Member Matters” by Josh Wredberg and Matthew Z. Capps. This study will unpack why membership isn’t just a suggestion, but a calling. Explore seven unique roles of a church member, understand membership as acts of worship, service, and discipleship, and most importantly, learn how to respond practically.
In Every Member Matters, you will be encouraged to embrace the awesome privilege of joining a local church and using your gifts to minister and serve His people! The church is God’s plan to reach the world, and there is no greater way to spend your life than in the service of Jesus’ mission. In the body of Christ, Every Member Matters.
** We have books available to those that want one. **
They are on the steps of the stage.
