EXPLORE THE BIBLE THROUGH LIFE LESSONS WITH EDU PASTOR RANDALL
One's spiritual and academic growth hinges on engagement in Bible Study. The focus is on the Bible, God's Word. Using Explore the Bible from Lifeway, our Life Groups have easy access to these quarterly book-by-book Bible studies for adults (both online and in print). Our goal is to provide a weekly, practical, repeatable, and age-appropriate encounter with God’s Word with this format. We utilize the whole of Scripture, focusing on Old Testament Books and New Testament Books alternatively throughout the year. Day after day, week after week, our whole church family can grow together in God’s Word one book at a time and learn how to know, love, and invest in God’s truth.
Randall Floyd is the Education Pastor at Grey Stone Church in Durham, NC and summarizes the scheduled lessons with five ideas and three conclusions each week. Through these brief supplemental online Life Lessons, small group leaders and facilitators can prepare to engage God's People with God's Word. Although we encourage people to connect in a small group on campus each week and personally with God's Word on a daily basis, these 15-minute videos can also be used for those who are on the go, or unable to attend on campus.

Grow Disciples
Growth happens through being a part of a Gospel-centered community. While sharing life in this Haven community, we are connected to Biblical teaching, authentic worship, individual & group study, servant evangelism, missions, and more.
2020 has been tough! We're so divided along Party lines, Economic lines, and now especially, Racial lines. That division has crept into some of our churches too. But God did not design the church to be that way. We should be UN-Divided! As a member of this study, you'll gain free access to video content in a private online study community, and exclusive bonus content! Join Pastors J.D. Grear and Dhati Lewis in these 5 discussions about having a gospel community (presented by the North American Mission Board).
"Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
MATTHEW 20:28

Equip Missionaries
We realize that many within our community are here for just a season of life. Whether going off to school, graduating, re-locating for a new job, or another opportunity, we recognize the need to equip people to be missionaries wherever they go. The goal is not for Haven to be a closed chapter in someone’s life, but an ongoing part of their story!
"From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us."
ACTS 17:26-27
GAME PLAN FOR LIFE WITH COACH JOE GIBBS
Joe Gibbs

It helped carry him to 3 Super Bowl championships and the Pro Football Hall of Fame as head coach of the NFL’s Washington Redskins, and has been a defining principle behind building Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) into one of NASCAR’s most successful multi-team racing organizations. Gibbs’ latest project is Game Plan for Life, his New York Times Best Selling book and its corresponding ministry (www.gameplanforlife.com). He's assembled an amazing team of experts to respond to the issues which are the most pressing in men’s lives. The results are a modern day game plan for a successful life based on God’s Word. Each weekly session includes prayer, an encouraging word, and that week's Personal Training. The session continues with a video object lesson from the Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) shop, The bulk of the video teaching occurs, with Coach illustrating the topic with experiences from his own life and an “assistant coach” or expert sharing more in-depth teaching on the topic in an interview format.

Summary by Randall Floyd; Education Pastor
Education Pastor
This book was written by the Prophet DANIEL, whose name means “God is my Judge.” It is written in 3rd person singular, however, Jesus stated that Daniel wrote the book (Mt.24:15, Mk 13:14; Lk 22:69). Daniel grew up in the captivity of Babylon, witnessing many historical events and visions and wrote this book sometime after 536 BC. He was originally put into the service of the conquering king and eventually took a key administrative role. Daniel ministered close to 70 years and worked under four major rulers: Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, the Median King Darius; and the Persian Ruler, Cyrus. The Babylonians had taken both Daniel and Ezekiel into captivity at about the same time. In addition to Jeremiah, these eyewitness-prophets helped the people understand the activity and the plans of the Lord, even during difficult times.
Outline for DANIEL:
Historic Providence (Daniel 1-6): The life and times of Daniel and his friends.
Prophetic Previews (Daniel 7-12): Powerful prophecies from God through Daniel.
Finding the Gospel in DANIEL:
Daniel shares an incredible prophecy about the Messiah (Dan. 9), even predicting the exact time Jesus would come to Jerusalem for the last time before He would be killed to save His people from sin! God’s great rescue plan was fulfilled down to the day. All of history is about what Jesus did on the cross by paying for our salvation.

Finding balance in your everyday life is a challenge; from family commitments to personal relationships, we often find ourselves being stretched thin, offering only our leftovers to God. Instead, let us fix our attention on God and be radically changed from the inside-out.
SENIOR LIFE GROUPS
Like wearing a jersey to a football game, baptism is our opportunity to identify with a person and a team. When we take our next step in baptism, we're letting the world know we belong to Jesus and we're on His team. There is no such thing as a private faith. Jesus died publicly for us, and baptism is our opportunity to go public for Him.
BAPTIST AGING MINISTRY OF NORTH CAROLINA (NCBAM):
Jesus said, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19). The first thing Jesus tells us to do after salvation is to be baptized. We can’t say we'll do anything for God if we won’t do the first thing. If you have not been baptized since asking Jesus into your life, baptism is your next step.
THE ONE HOPE PHONE LINE:
In the first recorded sermon in the early church, Peter preached to a crowd of thousands. About 3,000 people were saved, and the first thing Peter told them to do after salvation was get baptized (Acts 2:38). The pattern continues through the rest of the early church. Baptism is a public proclamation of the spiritual transformation that occurs when we commit to following Jesus.
