LOVE IN CHAOS with Bob Goff Good News for a Divided Culture We don’t have to look far to see division in our world. And in many ways, we are confused, angry, and disillusioned by all the chaos we’re experiencing. How should Christians respond to the chaos? What does it look like to live faithfully in these strange and challenging times? Join bestselling author Bob Goff in this six-session series as he helps us answer these questions. Learn what it looks like to follow Jesus and obey his commands even in a time of chaos. Download the Free Study Guide here As always, there will be small groups available for study and discussion. And we really encourage you to join a group or to be willing to host one and/or lead one yourself. The material for discussion and Leaders’ Guide will be provided. Please feel free to ask your pastors about joining a group or leading one.
