Foundations
TUESDAYS, FEB 25-APR 1: 6:30-8PM
Following Jesus is a beautiful and crazy journey, and we are here to equip you with tools to help you along your journey with Jesus. Through the Foundations 6-week study group, we'll learn about the basics of the Bible and provide a roadmap to help you engage in Scriptures and grow in your faith. We'll also explore tools for building a healthy devotional life and discover fresh ways to engage with Jesus. You will find a safe place to ask the questions while also growing in a community together.
