Mom – Mother’s Day Bible Study

 

The Active Word

Several readers have asked about our church. We go to church at Calvary Chapel Ft. Lauderdale. When we lived in Kansas, we joked around that we were the Andover, KS branch because we watched it home with mom and my brother and his family.

We’ve decided to post a teaching from Pastor Bob here each Sunday for those of you would like to enjoy it also.

If you don’t have a church home and can’t attend then you can watch their services live here.

Eastern Standard Time:

Saturdays – 6pm

Sundays – 8am, 10:15am, 12:30pm

Wednesdays – 6:30pm

 

If you can’t watch it live, here is a message you might like:

From Pastor Bob

“Mom”

Scripture is the best place to look for an insightful description of mothers and God’s design for their unique worth. Pastor Bob explores Proverbs 31 and other Scriptures to expand on the acronym “M.O.M.” to show that mothers are matchless, major, miraculous ministers who are observable, obligated, and obediently opinionated, as well as mighty, marvelous, management machines.

      Enjoy!
