Lenten Study
Feb

to Mar 24
Adults

Lenten Study

Explore the life of Jesus with a study based on season 1 of the series The Chosen. Being chosen by Jesus has beautiful and far-reaching implications—although it says even more about the Chooser than the choosees. We are loved because he is love. We are saved because he is merciful. We belong to the family of God because Jesus invites us, making the Bible and all its promises as true for us today as it was for God’s chosen people.

This study group will meet on Sundays, 9:30-10:30 am, during the Sunday School hour, February 4 - March 24. Participants will be asked to view one episode of The Chosen series (season 1) each week at home and come to the gathering for discussion with leader David Smith. Childcare for all ages will be provided by the Sunday School program. Instructions on how to view the episodes and the locations for the nursery and children's classes will be provided by email. Please register so that we may build that email list and then join us!
