Strange and Bizarre Stories from the Bible
In
this study we will tackle those stories from the Bible that
sound strange to modern ears and perhaps strange at any
time. While some may use the seemingly bizarre events to ridicule
the Word of God, these curious stories contain powerful truths
about life and our relationship to our God who is the Giver of
life. Come along on this journey as we walk on the wild
side of the Bible. Beginning Sunday evening, June 2nd.
Blessings,
Dr. Jesse Waggoner
Senior Pastor
