Crossfit Nutrition and Fitness         5 p.m.               Leaders: Dr. Larry Folden and Jody Dyess

Led by two certified Crossfit trainers, this 8-week study will focus on building a strong Temple. "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own." (1 Cor. 6:19) God created us to worship Him, one part of that worship is serving others, and as Christians we should be prepared to physically serve others. In this study we will learn about proper nutrition and health from a biblical perspective. It will be challenging, requiring discipline and accountability, but the rewards of a strong Temple will last a lifetime.

James: Mercy Triumphs                     4 p.m.                Leader: Shelia Dennis

Join the Central Ladies Ministry in our study of Beth Moore's "James: Mercy Triumphs". Cost will be $10 per person for the book. "Bible scholars compare James to the prophet Amos. In other ways James more closely resembles the Book of Proverbs than any New Testament book. Come along with Beth Moore on a journey to get to know both the man and the Book of James. You will never be the same again. Topics in this study include: joy, hardship, faith, reversal of fortunes for rich and poor, wisdom, gifts from above, single-mindedness, the dangers of the tongue, humility, and prayer. Plus, Beth introduces a 5-tiered study approach that she has never done before."   ~ From LifeWay.com
