Looking Through the Prism of Promise by Machaela Curry Do you remember hearing those familiar phrases, “I cross my heart or I pinky swear?” When you were younger, did others say them to you or did you use them yourself? Those words once held the hope of wonderful promises coming true. Now that you are older and wiser, though, you know better. You probably even look to see if fingers or toes are crossed as promises are made. In Looking through the Prism of Promise, we will see how promises really do come true – promises that have been made by the One who has never crossed His fingers. Come and experience seven promises that were made and seven promises that were kept. Those promises still stand today because they were made for you too!

Change in Perspective Welcome to Change in Perspective, a six week exploration of our adjustment to major life changes. This study will explore four stages of adjustment over time and focuses on changes following a “routine” move. However, other life changes, such as deployments and retirement are also highlighted during the sessions. Our views of God’s character during each stage of adjustment will be investigated. We will see how people in the Bible adjusted (or didn’t!) to changing circumstances. Finally, we will be challenged throughout the six weeks to recognize adjustment stages in others and how to most effectively help them see “change” in a new perspective. More
