New Firm Foundations class
David has started teaching a third Firm Foundations: Creation to Christ class at CrossWay Church in Central Florida. We’re calling the class Foundations 101.
You never know how many are going to show up for a new class, especially when it has been offered a few times before. God seems to be continuing to draw people to CrossWay Church who have a limited understanding of the full Story of God.

Katrina graduating May 19
I am finally down to my last few weeks of classes at New Tribes Bible Institute. I can hardly believe that I have been here for almost two years. The time has really flown by!
People have started asking me what some of the biggest things are that God has been teaching me over my time here at school.

Baptizing new believers
Praise God that David and another CrossWay Church elder had the privilege of baptizing several new believers Sunday evening after giving clear testimonies of their faith in Christ alone. One was a lady Kristia has been discipling. Several of the others David had taught from Creation to Christ in a 25 week Foundations class he teaches on Sunday mornings.

God-given opportunities and lessons
This semester has been so good. God has been teaching me so much both in class and outside. I’m also making plans for next year.
Through Revelation class God taught me who Christ is to believers and unbelievers. In His first coming He came as a servant and loving Savior, but in His second coming He will come as a Judge, Warrior and Mighty King.

Growth through discipleship
The more experience we gain in making disciples, the more vividly we understand, “So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.”

Fiduciary responsibility
Do you think that God depends on my “fiduciary responsibility” in order to accomplish His will?
