Women's Small Group
Thursdays, 9:30am, Room A105

Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for a faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling each of us to a passionate love relationship. Because the answer to religious complacency isn’t working harder at a list of do’s and don’ts—it’s falling in love with God. And once we encounter God’s love, as Francis describes it, we will never be the same! Join Pastor Jenothy in this book study on Francis Chan’s awarding-winning book “Crazy Love.”  Cost: $14.00.
