E4: Adult Bible Studies Spring 2023 Session 4: Great Expectations

Adult Bible Studies Spring 2023 | Sessions

Much like the people of Jesus’ day, we are living in a time of waiting, between the first coming of Jesus that ushered in his kingdom, and his second coming that will usher in the kingdom in all its promised fulness and beauty. As we wait for that day, we should regularly ask ourselves, "What do you think about the Messiah?” Our answers can lead us to seek after the heart of Jesus with a renewed spirit and open the eyes of our hearts to the truth of his love.
