The Third Word: Treasure the Name!
This week our Small Group Fellowship and Bible Study groups take on the commandment that many people think of as the commandment against cussing. However, as we have learned about both the First Commandment and the Second Commandment, there is more at stake for believers in this commandment than appears at first glance. This Third Commandment is also intended to safeguard and preserve our lives. The LORD our God desires a relationship with us that is living and passionate. God wants to be close enough to us that we know his name and call on it frequently. Join us this week as we learn to keep the Third Commandment!
Fellowship and Discipleship Groups
It is still not too late to receive help and support in your journey of discipleship from a group of believers who are trying to put the 10 Commandments into daily practice. Groups are meeting on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday evenings. Even if you are only able to attend for four weeks out of the ten weekly sessions, that's enough to begin forming a habit of "Commandment Keeping"! Grab the study guide for the week at www.10WordsToLiveBy.com and call one of our hosts to let them know you want to attend their group this week.
