This week at
Thirsty Thursdays - Young Adult Bible Study
"When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, He had compassion and did not bring upon them the destruction He had threatened.
But Jonah was greatly displeased and became angry."
There are seasons in life in which haters seem like Bebe's kids; they don't die, they multiply. But where do haters come from? Is it bad diet, birth defect, or not enough hugs as a child?
Join us this week and bring a friend as we reflect on "Moves, Motives, and Motivations." By understanding why people do things we'll learn what can turn a perfectly normal person into a hater.
