SUMMER BOOK CLUBS

Let this summer be a Summer of Wisdom!

James 1:5-6 "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind."

Have you been asking God for wisdom? As a church we are pursuing after wisdom this Summer! We are diving deep into his Word and we are praying that he would speak to us through our new sermon series on Ecclesiastes, our Book Clubs, and our Walking in Wisdom Daily Podcast Season 2!

SUMMER BOOK CLUBS

10 WEEKS LONG | LAUNCHING THE WEEK OF JUNE 12th

LIVING LIFE BACKWARD is the book we will be reading that dives deep into the meaning of life. Our Summer Book Clubs will take us into honest conversations about life and death, pleasure and pursuits, wealth and enjoyment of life.

Looking to the book of Ecclesiastes for wisdom, Living Life Backward was written to shake up our expectations and priorities for what it means to live “the good life.” Considering the reality of death helps us pay attention to our limitations as human beings and receive life as a wondrous gift from God—freeing us to live wisely, generously, and faithfully for God’s glory and the good of his world.

Keeping the end in mind shapes how we live our lives in the here and now. Living life backward means taking the one thing in our future that is certain—death—and letting that inform our journey before we get there.

WE INVITE YOU TO 1) START A GROUP! or 2) JOIN A GROUP!

1) START A GROUP. Decide a day, time, and location and think of ten people you can prayerfully invite into this #summerofwisdom. These can be people you know from where you live, work, study, or play! They don't have to be church goers, and that's exactly the point! Help others grow closer to God. The book has a simple guide for great discussion after every chapter.

2) JOIN A GROUP. Click below to join one of our many men's, women's, mixed groups, online, onsite, or in public spaces! Click on the book image for a direct link to Amazon.

When I first started going back to church it wasn’t just a Sunday thing for me. I signed up for a summer book club and joined a life group thru our @llcfwm and I am so grateful that the friendships I have made. These ladies are always there for me and ready to pray for me when I need it the most...I always think what if I didn’t have the courage to join those groups? How would my support system look like right? I’m very blessed to have met so many wonderful friends that I met thru my church @llcflb #peoplelovingplace

SERMON SERIES | LIVING LIFE BACKWARD

“Utterly meaningless!
    Everything is meaningless.”

Have you ever held vapor in your hand? Not for very long, right? The word meaningless or vanity, comes from the word vapor--- in other words everything under the sun---life, beauty, riches, pleasures, wealth, and all our pursuits are like vapor in one's hand. Living life in God's wisdom however, can help us discover the gift of life. Dive with us this #summerofwisdom
