SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS

On Sunday (January 24) we began a new six-week study by Max Lucado, titled "FEARLESS - IMAGINE YOUR LIFE WITHOUT FEAR"

As the title portrays, this study focuses on fear. Fear is like an invisible prison. It holds you captive, influencing your choices and perceptions about life, God, and other people. Can you imagine what your life would be like without fear? With so much going wrong in the world it can seem hard to picture. In Fearless, Max Lucado author of 3:16-The Numbers of Hope and pastor of Oak Hills Church, shows you how life can be lived with confidence and joy, when you replace your fear with faith. Let this inspiring and timely message encourage your heart today!

Peggy Lieb will lead this six-week study and everyone is welcome to attend. Just imagine what we all could do if we left fear behind!

Class participants may opt to order the book ($15.00) and study guide ($7.00). See Peggy Lieb for ordering. Extra copies will also be in the library to check out.

We also have the Chapel Class taught by Steve Smith (studying Psalms) and our Golden Circle Class taught by Eula Montgomery (studying The Covenant Community).
Grab a cup of coffee and join us for Sunday School and worship! And, bring a friend!
