Finding Truth | Parkside H.S. Student Bible Study

Parkside High School Students!
Join us most Mondays in April (8th, 15th, 22nd, & 29th) from 7:00-8:30 pm at Parkside Church for "Finding Truth", a High School Bible Study.

Why is this study important? Christians today face all kinds of challenges when it comes to understanding who we are and what we're meant to do. There's no shortage of options that claim to offer "truth." If we're not careful, we can find ourselves chasing after popular opinions, celebrity opinions, or the tug of our emotions all the while neglecting the unchanging truth found in Scripture.

In this four-session series, we'll join with author Francis Chan to explore the power and confidence that comes from anchoring our identity, purpose, and relationships in the truth of Scripture. Students will walk away with practical steps toward building their lives on the firm foundation of the Bible.

What to Expect: We'll fellowship and play games, watch a short video by Francis Chan, then spend time discussing and exploring scriptures and topics related to the video. We hope you'll join us!

In this four-session series, we'll join with author Francis Chan to explore the power and confidence that comes from anchoring our identity, purpose, and relationships in the truth of Scripture. Students will walk away with practical steps toward building their lives on the firm foundation of the Bible.

What to Expect: We'll fellowship and play games, watch a short video by Francis Chan, then spend time discussing and exploring scriptures and topics related to the video. We hope you'll join us!
