As Pastor John puts it, we will stop trying and we will begin training as followers of Christ.

Each study includes a video vignette by Pastor John Ortberg, along with digging into scripture, group discussion and prayer together. You don t have to read Ortberg s book by the same title, but for a deeper look at the topic, the book is available through Amazon or can be borrowed from the group. Volunteer Assistant Chaplain, Rev. Dan Barwinski facilitates these studies (March 6, 13, 20, 27, April 3 and 10) for the entire Estes community, including Y staff and guests.
