Becoming What God Intended [For Wives Only] (Concurrent)

Mondays: 1.00 pm-3.00 pm
This is a course that looks at Scriptures to understand the need for us to become what God intended for us at creation. It takes an in-depth look at what has gone wrong with the human race since the Fall. It then looks at what God has done to bring about what He intended for us – A New Creation in Christ. The process of learning includes both head knowledge and heart involvement so that lessons learned can be integrated and lived out in the learner’s life.
