This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
Joshua 1:8
And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the the LORD, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. The LORD will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”
Exodus 14:13-14
Following on the heels of our series “Know God in the New Year”, where we looked at what it means to truly know God along with practical ways to experience Him, is our new series entitled “This is our God.” In this series we will take a serious look into the character and nature of God. We will see what it means when the Bible says that our God is a God of love as well as a God of wrath. We will see how God can be a God of grace while still being a righteous judge. Join us as we explore the character and nature of the God who does not change and seek to know Him on deeper levels than ever before.
Join us on Sunday mornings at 8:30 and 11:00a.
