"¹⁴ if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. ¹⁵ Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. ¹⁶ I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there."

Nettie Cribb will be teaching Life Lessons of the Bible in the Library, and we will also have a study on the series The Chosen, season 3.

Lakewood’s longest running Bible study, Feasting In the Word, also meets on Wednesdays at 4pm, in the Mendoza Classroom. (Option to participate via Zoom also available). FITW is an in-depth study of the Bible book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. We have begun our study of Paul’s letters in the order in which he wrote them. Currently we are studying Spiritual Gifts and would love for you to join us. You do not need any prior Bible knowledge--just a love for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and a desire to better understand His Word and how to apply it in your life. If God is calling you to study His Word through this Bible Study, call or text Ree Unterspan at (904)524-6071 or simply join us next Wednesday at 4PM in Mendoza Classroom!
