Sunday Morning Studies
God's Relentless Love
Begins Sunday, April 16, at 9:15 a.m.
New Sunday Morning Bible Study begins April 16: God’s Relentless Love
In the book of Hosea were a movie, it would be a love story with a circular plot: the prophet Hosea marries the prostitute Gomer. she is unfaithful to him and leaves him for another --time and again. Hosea relentlessly pursues her, rescues her, and restores her as many times as it takes. Hosea loves Gomer, but we wonder if he will eventually lose heart and give up.
But the book of Hosea is our story. As this in-depth study shows, it is a metaphor of God's love for us -- His persistent, faithful, and continual pursuit of His sinful people. We wander; God pursues us. We fail; God rescues. We sin; God restores us to Him in the perfect love of His son, Jesus.
Join Jennifer Hills, Director of Discipleship, for this eight-week study beginning Sunday, April 16, at 9:15 am. Using historical information, contemporary stories, in-depth questions, and theological insights, God's Relentless Love Bible study shows how God never gives up on us, loves us freely, and makes us his very own. Books can be purchased for $14. Click here to register and purchase your book.
