January 12 - March 15
Thursdays 6:45-8:15pm, Conference Room A

Me, Myself, and Lies
by Jennifer Rothschild 

January 9 - February 13
Mondays 6:45-8:45pm, @ Betsy Carlson's home, a few minutes from Berean 
REGISTER HERE 

We all talk to ourselves all the time.  We evaluate everything we do, compare ourselves to others, repeat criticisms of others, and even call ourselves names.  We disparage who we are instead of dwelling on the truth about who God says we are.  This study will remind us that we are who God created us to be, and we are made and created to fulfill His plan for our lives.  We are chosen, loved, forgiven, free, and destined for a forever life with Jesus.  
Led by Rachel Boyd and Betsy Carlson
