The Digital Age has produced huge amounts of information that have radically advanced human learning. In fact, information is multiplying so rapidly that textbooks, how-to manuals, and even daily newspapers seem perpetually outdated. But what do we know about God? Are we advancing as rapidly in our knowledge of Him? People have used the explosion of social media primarily to inform friends and oth
ers about themselves and their lives. Therefore, we know more about one another, but do we really know one another? There’s a big difference between the two. The same is true when it comes to our relationship with God. We can learn more and more about God by studying His Word, but we also need to know Him in order for our lives to be changed. That’s why this study, “Beyond Belief,” is so important. “Beyond Belief” seeks to help us increase our knowledge of God by studying His character and moral attributes. But we don’t want to just know about God; we want to know Him more intimately. We could spend a lifetime studying the character and attributes of God revealed in the Bible and still only begin to scratch the surface of understanding the sovereign God of all creation. Therefore, the sessions in this study will focus on six major attributes of God: God’s holiness, God’s love, God’s justice, God’s forgiveness, God’s wisdom, and God’s faithfulness. As we begin to understand what God is like and how He works in our lives, we will not only know God more, but we also learn about ourselves and who we are in Christ.
