You should totally explore an Explore God Group

As we have been sharing on Sunday mornings, in September we will be participating in a city-wide effort to engage folks in real conversations concerning real questions about God and the Christian faith.

Several of you have already indicated your interest in leading a discussion group. If you have not received information yet on the details of leading a group, please let us know right away. We want to make sure we have you down to learn more. These will not be necessarily River Oaks small groups, but will be short term groups focused solely on facilitating these very important questions. The groups are meant as a way to expand your reach and to engage "outsiders" in the questions that nag so many.

If you have any interest, please let us know right away! We want to give you as much lead time and training as possible before the groups begin on September 9.

Why does God allow pain and suffering?

Sunday's question is one of the hardest ones to answer, and it is one that all who have ever lived have asked or wondered. You can watch the message below, or listen here . Some questions to consider this week: Share with your family or friends your own times of suffering. Who do you know who is suffering now? How can you connect with them and be a comforting presence? Where can you make the choice in your own life to choose "better" over "bitter"?

The Fall Feasts of God: The Feast of Booths

I LOVE God's story! I always love reviewing the rich truths and prophetic realities of God's Feasts (appointed times). In Leviticus, very early in the history of the nation of Israel, God appointed seven times each year when His people would stop what they were doing and remember. The feasts served as a reminder of what God had done, how He had provided, and what He was going to do in their life as His people. For many Christians today, we have forgotten or ignored these amazing feasts. For some, we feel that these were for the Old Testament, or are limited to the Jews. The truth, however is that these feasts and celebrations are so rich in truth and history that every believer can see their faith deepened if we'll just stop what we are doing and choose to celebrate the feasts. In doing so, we are welcomed into the realities of God's eternal story as well as His story He has been writing since the earth was created. On Sunday, we looked at the final Fall Feas
