Our Core Beliefs
Example of a Series or Session
Each session can stand on their own or be combined to make a series. The complete series is 6-one hour sessions. We can also discuss other topics that meet the needs of your group.
Session 1 - Our View of God Matters
When I know God is great and almighty, but He is also a good Father, it enables me to trust He will be faithful to come through as He promised.
Session 2 - Why Does God Want Me to Suffer?
No one wants to endure trials, but that’s where most growth occurs. Suffering is a trial on a deeper level. And if we don’t give up too soon, God builds our character to trust Him.
Session 3 - Courage is Contagious
The source of courage is God’s character. It is not a one-time thing. We keep asking for courage when we are tempted to give-up and God keeps giving it. Then others see it and want it too.
Session 4 - Certain and Unshakable Hope is Possible
You desire the good God is promising and you have a certain expectation that it will happen. Hopelessness and helplessness are replaced with a belief that God will be faithful because that is who He is.
Session 5 - The Peace of God is the Antidote to Anxiety
The calming tranquility arising from the reconciliation with a holy God results in a sense of divine favor and every kind of good and sound blessing. Until perfect peace is fully realized, we will not experience the absence of conflict, but we can fully know the absence of chaos and confusion amidst our trials.
Session 6 - God Hears the Heart Cries and Groans of Prayer
Before even uttering a word, we humble ourselves to acknowledge we are helpless without God. We pour out our heart to God through His Son, guided by His Spirit asking Him to mold our will to His. Then He miraculously lifts us up and gives us confidence to approach His Throne, where we find grace and mercy in our time of need.
