The Light, The Dark, and the Battle Between

Wednesdays in December | 4-5:15PM Will move to 5-6:15PM in January

A New Zoom Bible Discussion Series Beginning December 3rd!

Light and dark are powerful images in both the Old and New Testaments, including in the teaching of Jesus Christ – contrasting God’s way and what is good, with what is against God and what is sinful or evil. Jesus describes his followers as “the light of the world,” and calls them to be “in the world but not of the world”; and “to seek first the kingdom of God,” and to pray that “God’s kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.” Let us study together what the Bible reveals about the light, the dark, and the battle between, to increase our personal Christlikeness and to advance God’s kingdom on earth!
