Based on the book “Then Sings My Soul” by Robert J. Morgan

We will study beautiful hymns of faith. The hymns were meant to persist and be kept alive in our hearts. This study will help you rediscover the hymns of generations now gone and encourage you to lift your heart and voice upward in praise to the Lord.
How to hear the voice of God

11-week study led by the Cross Bible Study Group

Monday Evenings, September 30 - December 9, 6pm - 7:30pm
Based on the book “Whisper: How to hear the voice of God” by Mark Batterson

The voice that spoke the cosmos into existence is the same voice that parted the Red Sea, and made the sun stand still in the midday sky. One day, this voice will make all things new, but it’s also speaking to you now! God’s whisper can answer your most burning questions, calm your deepest fears, and fulfill your loftiest dreams.
