Join us for this engaging all church study by participating in a small group and reading this great book. Courage is the foundational virtue for the Christian life. Pastor and author Tom Berlin challenges us to unlock the courage that we already possess as Jesus followers. By examining Jesus’ life, we will begin to understand what true courage is and how God works in the lives of Jesus followers as they exhibit a brave faith. You may purchase a book for $13. Contact Rachel Henry for information and to sign up for a small group.
