Kristin Yeldell will teach us from the book Gideon, by Priscilla Shirer. When we hear the name Gideon, most of us think about his 300 soldiers or the fleece he laid out under the evening sky. Gideons story is so much bigger than that...bigger than one man and his mark on Israels people. Join us Tuesday at 9:00am or Wednesday at 6:30pm in the Worship Center as you are encouraged to recognize your weakness as the key that the Lord gives you to unlock the full experience of His strength in your life. Janet Wicker will teach us from a study she has written titled Trustworthy: A Study of the Letter to Titus -- What to Do When you Wait! This study will employ the inductive Bible study method in personal verse by verse examination of its important doctrinal themes and life instructions.
Food. Fire. Jesus. Be at the Taylors house and bring your friends and we celebrate the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014!

The spiritual decline of America has been a gradual turning away from God and the Bible. What has happened since the founders establised this nation with a reverence for Christianity? What is the history of these changes? How has the decline accelerated in recent years? What does the Bible tell us about continuing on this downward path versus turning back to God in a national revival?
