New Sunday Night Bible Study, 6:00pm As the accomplished musician has the "freedom" to play with such skill comes only after years of disciplined practice. In the same way, the freedom to grow in godliness---to naturally express Christ's character through your own personality---is in large part dependent on the cultivation of the spiritual disciplines. Join Pastor Ben as he teaches through the “Spiritual
Disciplines for the Christian Life” by Donald Whitney. Room 127
