August is a season of beginnings

Kids are returning to school, work may be picking up in earnest, and church programming will soon commence (if it hasn’t already!).

If you’re still looking for resources for your small groups, we suggest you begin at the beginning—literally. Amplify Media presents a comprehensive study of Genesis presented in a podcast format. In this installment from Armchair Theology, pastors Clay Farrington and Ross Furio discuss Genesis over the course of seven podcast sessions. And the best part? You can listen for FREE !

But that’s not all! You can also download Bible study guides that will enhance the Genesis podcast studies. Also for free!  

Listen to Armchair Theology on Amplify Media and then subscribe to get full access to thousands of other high-quality study videos!
