E7: Adult Bible Studies Fall 2021 Session 7: The Church as a Discerning Body

Adult Bible Studies Fall 2021 | Lessons

“Who do you say that I am?” That is the question at the heart of Matthew 16:13-19. Host Brian Sigmon reminds us that we must allow God to show us who Jesus is, continually, through a commitment to reading Scripture with openness; a steady pattern of worship in which we confess him as our Lord and Savior.
