Living with Courage and Hope in Uncertain Times”

In this 5 week study Adam Hamilton explores the worries and fears most of us experience. The group will learn to identify our fears and discover practical steps for overcoming them…all in the light of Scripture and a faith that promises again and again that we can live with courage and hope.
