AN ORIGINAL BIBLE STUDY SERIES
IN GOD WE TRUST
Everyone trusts in someone, but eventually everyone will let you down! Even the best person you know can’t live up to your needs and expectations . . . ONLY GOD can do that! IN GOD WE TRUST is an honest conversation about God’s goodness, kindness, and sovereignty in your everyday life. Together, we’ll explore ancient truths that have comforted and encouraged believers since the beginning of time.
