We know that many of our members, by virtue of not feeling welcome in local bodies, don't get the chance to do Bible study with other believers as much as they would like to. (We hope you are into the Word alone and as a family, at least!) We desire to provide more opportunities in this regard for our members. Would you be interested in receiving a more frequent devotional message by email from Biblical Families? A chance to dig deeper on a topic from the Word, with one of the pastors and teachers (the authors will vary) associated with Biblical Families? If you would, you simply need to drop an email to devotional@biblicalfamilies.org from the email address you would like to receive these messages. (That should also help you avoid a junkmail filter blocking this address – if you email us first.) We are excited by this opportunity to build deeper bonds in the Word with our members – and this will be an interactive opportunity as well: we'll set up forum threads where you can discuss the messages after they are sent. Sign up and check it out!
