“Experiencing God” Study
“Experiencing God” Study by Blackaby and King: There will be three time options are available in an effort to create small, intimate groups where you can go deeper into your faith and be free to share and speak your truths in confidence. Times are as follows: Tuesdays from 6:00—7:30 p.m. with Cyndie Humpton; Wednesdays from 6:30—8:00 a.m. with Cyndie; Wednesdays from 12:00—1:30 p.m. with Ginny Tostenson. This still will begin Tuesday, September 16 and ends Wednesday, December 10. There will be a limit of 5 people per group!
Description: There is an enormity of the spiritual hunger in the hearts and lives of God’s people to experience God. Many of God’s people have head knowledge about God but little heart and life experience with God! God is inviting you into an intimate love relationship through which He reveals to YOU His will, His ways, and His work. When you recognize where God is working, you can join Him in what He is doing. Carefully listening to His voice will anchor you in His plan and set you free to live it with boldness and freedom. Then you will experience God doing through you what only He can do.
This study goes for 12 weeks. The cost of the workbook is $21.00, if you are able.
