NEW DISCIPLESHIP CLASSES Sermon Notes COME HOME by James McDonald (For Men & Women) Wednesday Evenings, October 15th - November 12th Facilitated by Steve Davis, Cost - $12 God is very concerned for individuals who wander from the truth and find themselves far from Him. There are multiple examples of wanderers in the Bible, such as Peter, Thomas, Samson, and the prodigal son. These biblical characters represent the variety of qualities found in people who wander today; fearful, doubtful, sensual, and willful. Come Home is an invitation to all wanderers and to those who love them. It is a call to a greater awareness of the disconnected and hurting and a challenge to believers to bring back those who are missing. Date: October 19, 2014 Speaker: Rev. Bill Ricketts Senior Pastor ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ READY TO LAUNCH by J.D. & Veronica Greear (For Men & Women) ____________________________________________________________________ Wednesday Evenings, October 15th - December 3rd, 6:15 pm, Room 1127 Facilitated by Joe Hicks, Cost - $13 ____________________________________________________________________ Focuses on Parenting - Christian parents are not seeking mere behavior modification in their children, but the growth of truly godly passions. “Training a child up in the way he should go” must be done intentionally, with the mind and heart of God. Based on Psalm 127, this study explores the wisdom of the Bible regarding the goals of parenting, the stages of discipline, the role of the church, and strategies to shape the heart toward the gospel. ONE WAY LOVE - by Tullian Tchividjian (For Men & Women) ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ Wednesday Evenings, October 22nd - December 3rd, 6:15 pm, Room 1125 Facilitated by Doug Nix, Cost - None ____________________________________________________________________ Real life is long on law and short on grace - the demands never stop, the failures pile up, and fear sets in. Anyone living inside the guilt, anxiety and uncertainty of daily life knows that the weight of life is heavy. We are all in need of some relief. Tullian Tchividjian, Billy Graham’s grandson, calls the church to abandon our play-it-safe religion and to embrace God’s unflinching grace which changes our life forever. ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ PABC will be holding a food drive for the needy in our community next Sunday, October 26th.
