Journeys
We are....
A fun-loving community group who desires to learn
more about God, strengthen our faith and develop strong and lasting
friendships. Our Sunday morning studies range from in-depth
explorations of books of the Bible, contemporary books with Christian
applications and faith topics that can enhance our daily lives at home
and work. Most studies are DVD-based, followed by lively interactive
discussions. We truly care about each other and share in each others’
joys and sorrows like a family; supporting each other through a strong
prayer network and personal encouragement. To enhance this strong bond,
we love to have fun! Finally, we are always on the lookout for those in
need that we can help through our actions and support.
We are basically
a group of married and single folks in our 40’s and 50’s. But everyone
is welcome. If this sounds like a group you would like to be a part of,
please come visit us! We meet on Sunday mornings at 11:00 a.m. in Quad 2B&C. For more information regarding our class, please contact Mike Furman. Our next study begins Sunday, April 29... please see description below and consider joining us!
"Christianity, Cults, and Religions" by Paul Carden
This DVD-based study helps Christians know what
they believe and why. By comparing Christianity with groups such as Mormons and
Jehovah's Witnesses, people have a better grasp about what the Bible says about
who Jesus is and the message of the Gospel. This study simply
explains the history, background, and beliefs of the most common world
religions and cultic groups: Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Mormonism, Jehovah's
Witnesses and other groups.
Paul Carden, one of the most respected specialists
in this field, has spent 30 years researching, writing and broadcasting on the
topics of cults and new religions. He is the general editor of the best-selling
cults comparison chart, Christianity, Cults & Religions. Carden presents an
easy-to-understand comparison of the founder, date, location, history, beliefs,
of each group. Carden also explains how to talk with people of other faiths in
a way that will open them to the Gospel not turn them off. Participants will
gain a solid Scriptural foundation for their own faith so that they can answer
the questions of other groups - who is Jesus? What do we believe about God?
What happens after death? How do the other religions view salvation?
