Regular Electives

ManChurch disciples men to love God and love people through personal and corporate Bible study, prayer, surrender, and service with each other and our community.
This fall, we're diving into the Old Testament through a study called The Good Kings of Judah: Learning to Avert Moral Failure from Eight Good Men Who Didn't. We're studying the kings of Judah who "did what was right in the eyes of the Lord." Tragically, each of these good kings had a character flaw that ultimately brought hardship and suffering on them and the nation. This study examines the importance of godly character in the life of a leader and helps us understand the heart of the matter is a matter of the heart.

God offers freedom through Christ Jesus, but the culture around us is constantly bombarding us with deceptive messages.
