NPBC Noonday Bible Study started August 6 and will end December 17, 2025. – JOIN US FOR AN EXPOSITORY PRESENTATION OF THE EIGHTEEN ARTICLES OF FAITH! Even today it is not easy being a Christian, but we must find a way to live our faith without compromise. All of us have faith, but will your anchor of faith hold in the storms of life? Is your anchor of faith a true anchor? Is your faith built upon the truth of scripture? Is your faith tested? Do you know how valuable, revealing and full of love, a faith in
Christ is? Is your faith timeless, or will the newest fad or the latest philosophy cause you to tie to a new anchor? Only a faith in Christ is true, tested, and timeless. Our time to live our faith is now! NPBC Noonday Bible Study will be available every Wednesday at 12:00 Noon. (Dial 848-220-3300. Access code 7266492#)
Evening Bible Study Topic – The Book of Titus: Pastor Nathaniel J. Wood will lead the six-week session.
The study of the letter from Paul to Titus emphasizes the necessary connection between sound doctrine and godly living, urging Titus to appoint qualified elders, correct false teachings, and encourage believers to live transformed lives that demonstrate the power of God’s grace through good deeds and integrity within their corrupt culture.
