We'll Be Back - Fall 2022!

The ministry of Wow is on summer break from mid-May until Monday, September 12… We are going to begin the life and Works of the apostle Paul at that time, and Autumn will be given to an in-depth look at his background and training/impact on Christendom! 

We will study the life and times of the apostle Paul in September and then move into his earliest book —Galatians in advance of studying his model of shepherding with the church at Thessalonica. The fall term will run September 12 to December 5…

Rather than a hot, dry spiritual time, we are praying that the good nourishment of the Word makes your summer an oasis and the promise of Jeremiah 17 is true – that even in a season of heat and drought, “we continue to bear fruit!”

Please look for the summer book list to be attached here in June.
