ANNOUNCEMENTS & ARTICLES
Come for a journey in THE GOOD LIFE with Splash of Joy 1 as we study AMOS by Jennifer Rothschild. AMOS is often called a prophet of doom, and when you read his prophecy, that nickname seems to fit. On the surface, his message doesn’t sound like a happy formula for the good life. However, every condemnation he declares serves as an invitation, a call to “seek God and live”. (Amos 5:4)
In this 8 session study, you’ll be invited to live assured, faithful, chosen, humble, justly, prayerfully and hopeful. This kind of living brings peace and true prosperity for us and those around us. Amos promotes the God life, and the God life is the good life!!
