In faith and doubt, he stepped out to launch a daring attack that energized his people. With that attitude, we can be movers and shakers rather than moaners and slackers. These are the eight characteristics of an adventurer’s heart, what is called ‘The Jonathan Factor.’ This Life Group will have real-life stories, personal interviews, and great teaching moments that will change your life as we study the life of Jonathan together.”
  • For all adults: childcare available. $10 book fee.
