All men, including older teens are welcome to join the men's group that meets downstairs at CCC from 8:30- 9:45 on Sunday morning. After a few minutes of coffee and relaxed fellowship we spend time sharpening each other as we discuss the lesson for the week. The topic this fall is "The Gift of Being Yourself" by David Benner. We think this book has the potential to be powerful in our lives. (Books are available every Sunday.) We read one brief chapter each week looking for ideas to discuss as a group when we are together. You are welcome to come even if you have not read the chapter for the week as the discussion will be interesting and worthwhile anyway.
