Quest Discipleship Studies
Wild At Heart (Men Only)
Helping men rediscover their masculine heart, Wild at Heart, a guide to understanding Christian manhood, offers a refreshing break from the chorus of voices urging men to be more responsible, reliable, dutiful ... and dead. In this provocative book, John Eldredge gives men permission to be what God designed them to be---dangerous, passionate, alive, and free.
WEDNESDAY EVENINGS at 6:15 p.m. (January 12th through March 30th)
Facilitator: Steve Morgan. Class cost is $10.00 per person.
Mens Fraternity: Winning at Work and Home (Men Only)
For most men satisfaction in life is locked up in two words: Work and Home. Together these words capture the worlds that make up the bulls-eye of a mans life. These arenas absorb most of a mans time, talent, energy, effort and creativity. Most importantly, no man can afford success in only one of these critical areas. The good life demands that he win in both.
SUNDAY EVENINGS at 5:00 p.m. beginning January 9th.
Facilitator: Mike Iosia. Class Cost is $10.00 per person.
