Home Based Small Groups
Various Days, Times, & Locations
Home-based small groups kick off the week of September 12, 2021. During the fall semester we will be going through the book of Judges. In this series, pastor and author J.D. Greear wades into the book of Judges to shine a light onto the muddy waters of human rebellion. The stories and truths within are not just archaic tales with no relevance for us today. Rather, J.D. works through each chapter unpacking the truth of God’s grace in the midst of human wickedness, and shows how only the divine can redeem the fallen.
