will occur in the Ruby Doub McMillan Fellowship Center

at Wesley Pines, Lumberton, NC.

During July

Wonder, Wrestle, and Worship with Hebrews this summer.

Join this summer’s synod-wide Scripture adventure Bible reading plan: Heartfelt Hebrews - a journey through one of the most poetic, profound, and mysterious books in the New Testament.

We don’t know who wrote Hebrews or exactly who first heard it, but we do know it speaks powerfully into our lives today. With rich imagery, deep theological insight, and a bold reimagining of Old Testament traditions, Hebrews invites us to wonder, to wrestle, and to worship.

Whether you’ve read it before or are encountering it for the first time, come along to explore timeless questions about Jesus, faith, and community—together.
