Check in and sign up for a game between 6:30-7:00pm. Games will start promptly at 7:00pm. Light snacks will be provided, but feel free to bring something to share!
Walter Hoffman will lead an 8-week discussion group on “Love Wins,” a book about “Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived.” The group will meet in the Parlor at 9:45 during Sunday School.
From Rob Bell:
“First, I believe that Jesus’s story is first and foremost about the love of God for every single one of us. It is a stunning, beautiful, expansive love, and it is for everybody, everywhere.”
“Second, I have written this book because the kind of faith Jesus invites us into doesn’t skirt the big questions about topics like God and Jesus and salvation and judgment and heaven and hell, but takes us deep into the heart of them.”
From Amazon:
“In ‘Love Wins,’ bestselling author, international teacher, and speaker Rob Bell addresses one of the most controversial issues of faith –hell and the afterlife—arguing, would a loving God send people to eternal torment forever?” “With searing insight, Bell puts hell on trial with a hopeful message – eternal life doesn’t’ start when we die; it starts right now. And ultimately, ‘Love Wins’.”
You can download the book on Kindle Unlimited for free. The paperback book is on sale for $13.09. If you would like to purchase a book, please email, text, or call Cathy Waitman by February 11 at cathy@frucc.org or 336-250-2731)
