We are beginning a new Bible study series that is guided by the John Mark Comer book, “Practicing the Way.” This book is designed for in-depth small group discussion, which will hopefully lead to deeper relationships with God and one another. The goal of this book (and this study) is for followers of Jesus to embrace the wonderful yet challenging walk with Jesus and to do so within a faithful and accountable community. First Baptist of Augusta will be encouraging this study for all members as we will journey through the study together beginning in the Fall of 2025.

The Practicing the Way Course features eight sessions of teaching, guided conversation, and spiritual exercises designed to lay a foundation for lifelong apprenticeship to Jesus. The Course is the onramp to the Practices and our other resources.

On Wednesday, August 6, we will have a “Practicing the Way” Kick-Off that evening. We will explain the purpose of this study, how it will work, and what we hope will be some potential outcomes from this.  This study is an 8-week study that includes a workbook and videos in addition to the book itself. The first session will begin the week of August 11. More information about the study process will be provided in coming weeks ! If you would like to go ahead and begin reading the book in preparation for the study please click the link below for purchase options.

Our hope is that this study will deepen our study and understanding of Scripture, unite each of us with a loving and supportive community, and direct in the way of following Jesus in everything that we do.
