knowledge of the bible.

In it there are all the teaching passages for our

current series EXILES. - along with related
b i b l e ve r s e s t o ex p l o re a n d g o d e e p e r.

Each week has two sections:

Session has the passage from that weeks Spin
t a l k o n 1 Pe t e r.
Devotion includes a reading that is related to
that weeks talk.

Our hope is that personally you will develop a

continued habit of spending time with God, so
use this material however it suits you best!

Merge (9-12) as we connect deeper with each
