The Chosen Bible Study
Wednesdays @ 1:00pm
Led by Ginny Pellis
Meeting in the Church Library
This study teaches readers to run to Jesus when life is hard or confusing and to trust Him as their place of refuge.
The table is set. The people of Israel welcome Jesus as king while his disciples anticipate his crowning. But—instead of confronting Rome—he turns the tables on the Jewish religious festival. Their power threatened, the country’s religious and political leaders will go to any length to ensure this Passover meal is Jesus’ last.
