Summer Sermon and Lecture Series 2019

[RCCAtl]

Summer Series

Northside Drive Baptist Summer Series, June 2 - August 25, Fellowship Hall, 3100 Northside Drive, Atlanta 30305, during the Sunday School hour, 10 a.m. The Adult Education Ministry Team has planned a great series called Spiritual Biographies. "This summer the focus of our Church School series will be on the spiritual life stories of individuals of faith. Men and women like Dorothy Day, Elie Wiesel, Clarence Jordan, Addie Davis, and others who have lived lives of deep faith and commitment, and who have struggled with their own self-understanding and understanding God. When we hear another person’s spiritual life story, we are able to draw connections to our own spiritual formation."
