Workshop Information:

Our time in this workshop will center on gaining fresh insights into the purpose and power of God’s Word for our daily lives. The Bible is a powerful thing—even dangerous. It is “alive and active” and it has the ability to penetrate deeply into our souls to do its work in us. If we let it. The Apostle Paul told young Timothy that “all Scripture is God-breathed and useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” We’ll unpack that to examine what God’s Word can do in us, if we desire to be that “man of God” who is “thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
