Cause and Effect
As we continue to learn to understand grief, we consider some causes of grief, effects of grief and how God responds to both.
Under Pressure
This week we look at tempting and testing. They have different sources and different intended results. Understanding those differences can help us through many situations and can help our relationship with God to grow deeper.

We’ve all heard there are two things you can’t avoid: death and taxes.

We conclude our series about the church this week. We have asked this question during each lesson: “What does a church member do?” This week we talk about how a church member must grow.
How We Grow
In the first lesson in this series, we learned that God expects us to grow. This week, we talk about the ways that we can grow.
Belonging
Most people want a place to belong. Those who follow Jesus find that and much more. In Luke 9, we look at several things that come as a result of following Jesus and what that means for us as church members.
Connections
We have always understood that prayer is a way that we connect with God, but as church members our prayers are another way we can connect with one another.
Church and Family
In our new series about the church, we will ask this question during each lesson: “What does a church member do?” This week we talk about how a church member teaches children to be like Jesus.
Solid Food
In our relationship with God, we are constantly growing and maturing. Jesus grew, and that is another way we want to be like Him.
