Description: Are your thoughts leading you toward transformation or conformity? Are they building you up or tearing you down? Are they drawing you closer to God or pulling you away? In Romans 12:2, we read these words: “Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” Our lives are constantly being shaped and molded by the thoughts we think. For the next five weeks, we will learn to actively and intentionally challenge our thoughts. This isn’t a study on the power of positive thinking—or how you have the power to change your life—but about learning how God made your brain. He will transform your life as you learn to take every thought captive and submit it to the truth of his Word.

Study: Psalm 119

Description: Even the most mature believers face dark nights of the soul. During those times God seems distant, his Word feels dry, and the vibrant intimacy we knew before seems absent leaving us wondering, “Where is the Lord in this?” In Psalm 119, we find that the words of King David experienced similar seasons of life. Serving as the anchor for the study, Psalm 119 demonstrates the power of God’s Word in the lives of believers and its ability to provide a warm blanket for the soul.
