Easter Book Study by Zoom
Forgiveness, by Marjorie J. Thompson
Sundays, 6:00PM
April 4, Easter Sunday - May 9 (6 weeks)
Pastor Judi leads this study featuring Marjorie J. Thompson's book, Forgiveness. From the website: "forgiving others and humbly asking for forgiveness are central disciplines for all Christian believers. In six brief chapters, the author prompts discussion with questions such as
-
Is forgiveness a Christian duty under all circumstances?
-
Is forgiveness a matter between individuals, or is it meaningful only in the context of communities?
-
How do we get past emotional barriers to real forgiveness?
Using biblical examples and real-life situation, Thompson illustrates each chapter's theme in an informative and engaging way."
Books are available in the office ($11.00) and include a study guide. If you prefer a "green" option, a Kindle version is availalbe online.
If the lack of a Bible is holding you back from participating, stop by the OLCCP Little Free Library and pick one up, yours to keep. Devotional booklets are also available in the LFL.
