Martin Journey Group

The Martin Journey Group will begin a study by Sandra Richter in her Epic of Eden series. This one, her latest, is Deborah: Unlikely Heroes and the Book of Judges. You are invited to join in the conference room on Sunday mornings from 10 to 11 AM. Although there are 8 chapters/sessions in the book, we will take 16 weeks to complete the study as we have limited time between the services. The plan will be to watch the video the first week and most of the discussion will occur the second week. We will not meet on Easter Sunday and possibly not on Palm Sunday either. This study will take us almost until Memorial Day.
