2018 Summer Bible Study
UNLOCKING THE MYSTERIES OF THE BIBLE
provides a clear, easy, and accessible way to understand Scripture. This study is suitable for both beginners and for those who are experienced at Bible study, because it simplifies the complexity of the Bible through an easy-to-follow narrative approach, and a color-coded

We will begin
