New Wednesday Night Study

BAIT OF SATAN Study
NEW WEDNESDAY NIGHT STUDY - Starting February 7
The Bait of Satan exposes one of the most deceptive snares Satan uses to get believers out of the will of God--offense. Most people who are ensnared by the bait of Satan don't even realize it. John Bevere shows you how to stay free from offense and escape the victim mentality. As a book ‘The Bait of Satan’ has nearly one million copies in print! Also, this series includes testimonials of transformed people whose lives have been changed by this message. You will find answers to tough questions like these: Why am I compelled to tell "my side" of the story? How can I fight thoughts of suspicion or distrust? What can I do to stop rehearsing past hurts? How can I regain trust after someone deeply offends me?

Christmas Eve Service
