Biblical Creation Seminar with Robert Carter, Ph.D.
2023-06-04 16:00 - 19:00 UTC | Western Heights Baptist Church, 2382 West Point Rd, LaGrange, GA, 30240, United States
About Robert Carter, Ph.D.
Rob is one of the world’s leading Christian researchers in the study of human genetics and how this relates to human biblical origins. The good news is that the Bible can really be trusted when it comes to such history and in particular its account of Creation as read in the book of Genesis.
Like so many, Rob was challenged by his college education which started to sap his faith. That was until he saw Creation magazine. Realizing that science and religion were not in conflict with one another, his faith grew. So much so, that his passion is now communicating this important truth to people everywhere.
Rob is a much-loved and engaging speaker, so don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to hear one of the world’s leading creation scientists, and see why!

The Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows
2023-09-06 18:30 - 19:30 UTC | Western Heights Baptist Church, 2382 West Point Rd, LaGrange, GA, 30240, United States
“God wants me to try harder.”
“God blesses me when I’m good and punishes me when I’m bad.”
“God is angry/disappointed with me.”
We all have ideas that we tell ourselves about God and how he works in our lives. Some are true, but many are false. Looking at the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John), we can see if our beliefs match up with what Jesus himself reveals about God.
Taught by Greg and Sherri Brown using the book The Good and Beautiful God: Falling in Love with the God Jesus Knows by James Bryant Smith, this small group will explore those ideas and practice specific activities that will help you begin to live your life in the truth of who God is.
Each week, class members will discuss a chapter of the book (about 10-15 pages of reading a week) and spend time during the week practicing the assigned spiritual activity.
You will need a book for the class. Both new and used books are available through a variety of online sources. If you need assistance with a book order or have other questions, contact the Church office at 706-882-2545.
Sign up for the class here. Class begins on Wednesday, Sept. 6, and will meet each Wednesday for 10 weeks. Childcare is provided for infants through kindergarten-age children. First through Fifth graders attend Pathfinders. Supper is provided for all children.

Love Like You Mean It
2023-09-06 18:30 - 19:30 UTC | Western Heights Baptist Church, 2382 West Point Rd, LaGrange, GA, 30240, United States
You’ve been lied to about love…and it’s time to know the truth.
Pastor Jason will lead participants using Love Like You Mean It by Bob Lepine, on this journey of redefining true love by walking through 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. The Love Like You Mean It study will empower couples to love each other the way God intended.
Each week participants will watch a short video clip to prompt discussion and review the reading for the week. Look forward to the transformation of your marriage over ten weeks. The included assessment will help each couple to identify their own areas of strength and opportunities to grow.
You will need workbooks for this class. Please sign up for the class here using Sign Up Genius. We will get a head count and order workbooks all at once. The cost for a set of two workbooks for a couple is $15. Childcare is provided for infants through kindergarten-age children. First through Fifth graders attend Pathfinders. Supper is provided for all children.

Morning Women's Bible Study: Abide by Jen Wilkins
2023-09-12 09:30 - 11:00 UTC | Western Heights Baptist Church, 2382 West Point Rd, LaGrange, GA, 30240, United States
Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. 1 John 2:24
How can we hold onto assurance of our faith? How can we discern the truth from a lie? How can we know God loves us? In these three short letters, the apostle John reminds an early church facing division, deception, and doubt to hold fast to what they know and to live like they believe it. And he reminds us, as well. In this 10-session Bible study on the letters of 1, 2, and 3, John, Jen Wilkin helps you see how two thousand years later, his words call to Christians in similar challenges to recall great salvation and to abide in the truth.
Women’s Bible Study meets on Tuesday mornings at 9:30 in the Youth Building Room 204. For more information or to register, contact the Church office at 706-882-2545.
