The GBOD offers Webniars frequently, but this particular one fits into the topic that was presented in last week’s sermon (Sunday 2\/16\/14) and discussed during this week’s small group meetings.\u00a0 The topic is the “Means of Grace”. What are some of the practices that we can develop that put is into places where “God shows up”?\u00a0 To grow\u00a0 into a deeper knowledge we need to practice the “Means of Grace” by nurturing habits that make us “vulnerable” to God’s leading.<\/span><\/p>\n
