6-Week Beginner Level Bible Class led by Pam Wagner.
A Bible survey is a general overview of God’s Word. When we look at the whole Bible, we can sometimes be overwhelmed. A survey helps us see the big picture without feeling lost. It’s like flying in a plane and getting a high-level look at what the Bible is saying, without getting submerged in all the twists and turns. It’s all about learning the story of the Bible and how we fit into it. This class is designed to give a general picture of each book, from Genesis to Revelation.
