There is also a new 6 part DVD study by Andy Stanley – “Taking It To The Limit”. Overloaded? Maxed out? Our culture encourages us to live as if we have no limits. So we do as much as we can, spend as much as we can, and acquire as much as we can – all in an effort to get as much as we can out life. And it explains that we much create margins to live the life God intended for us. Feel free to join us in ROOM 1F.
YOUNG ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS…Feasts: in the constantly changing world of the 21st century, people everywhere are hungry for something stable and lasting. Feast is an answer to that hunger. We will take a journey of remembering the six major feasts of the Jewish calendar, examining their historical meaning and helping us as Christ-followers to discover the richness of tradition and what those timeless practices mean today. Maybe we don’t need another new idea. Maybe we need some very old traditions to remind us that in a constantly changing world, God never does. So pull up a chair. Let’s eat, along with generations of God’s people before us, and remember. In the Family Life Center.
