Our church loves to sing the truths of Scripture!  Now you can hear the songs we sing on Sunday via our church Spotify channel.  Share it with friends and family!

Children’s Classes
The first Sunday each month is Family Worship Sunday for children and parents to worship together in the sanctuary.  The remaining Sundays we provide a children's class  (2 years -- Kindergarten). Children can be checked in at the Geist Kids kiosk in the foyer.  A Geist Children's Bulletin is available for  children staying in the sanctuary to engage and participate in the corporate worship gathering.

MAY MEMORY VERSE
Amos 9:11-12   “In that day I will raise up the booth of David that is fallen and repair its breaches, and raise up its ruins and rebuild it as in the days of old, that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” declares the Lord who does this.

Sermon Discussion Questions
1.  What aspect of God’s person/character in Nahum 1:2-7 do you find most troubling? Most comforting? How does being reminded of God’s character drown out the difficulties of this world and challenge you to press on in obedience to Him? (See 2 Thessalonians 1:5-12)
2.  How is it encouraging to read that God protected Judah by destroying her enemies? How should we think about God’s justice and the death of people who face His wrath? (See Ezekial 18:23; Romans 2:1-5) What enemies threaten Christians today? How have you seen God’s protection when you faced physical or spiritual enemies?
3.  How would you describe the book of Nahum in a short sentence or two? Why do God’s people need this book of the Bible? How has it brought encouragement to you so that you might have hope? (Ro. 15:4)
