What the First Seal Really Means — Most Christians Have Never Studied It. Will You?

When the Lamb opens the First Seal in Revelation chapter 6, Scripture records a thunderous voice from heaven and the appearance of a white horse rider who goes forth “conquering, and to conquer.”

According to the revealed message, this Seal unveils a profound mystery: the subtle spirit of deception at work since the earliest Church Age, pointing toward greater end-time realities in the Seven-Sealed Book — the title deed of redemption reclaimed by Christ.

Few have examined the distinction between the symbol given to John and its deeper meaning for believers in these last days, including the significance of the thunder that announces its opening.

Join us for a warm, Scripture-focused gathering where we will explore this hidden truth together in a spirit of fellowship and prayer. Bring your Bible and an open heart. You may discover insights that deepen your understanding of God’s Word.
All are warmly welcome!

Join us for this excellent opportunity discussing The First Seal: Unveiling a Hidden Mystery in Revelation. We meet at Panera Bread, Englewood, on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at 6:30 pm.

Jesus made it clear--He did not come to abolish the Old Testament law, but to fulfill it.

The Pharisees did not understand what that looked like--they expected that the promised Messiah would come to bring strength, power, and victory to the Jewish people; they expected the Messiah would act and speak very differently than what Jesus did.

Telling those who were poor, those who hunger, and those who weep how happy they were while telling those who were rich, those who were well-fed, and those who laugh that they should be sorrowful turned conventional wisdom on its head; Jesus' message was precisely that--He was calling people to be wise according to God's standards, not man's.

Jesus still calls people to the wisdom of God--to be like the wise man who built his house on a rock, and not like the foolish man who built his house on the sand. Jesus said the fruit of those who follow Him would look like His life and teaching.

Come study Luke 6 with us, Sunday morning, September 27, 2026 at 10 am, Panera Bread, Austin Landing! We look forward to seeing you there!!

What Is A Woman?

Nationally known as a psychologist and a radio personality, Dr. Toni Grant became nationally known thanks to her ability to give sound advice in a relational and effective way, and to handle hot topics with a unique blend of rational argument and a believable perspective.

When she wrote "Becoming A Woman: Fulfilling Your Femininity and Finding Love" in 1988, she took semi-controversial ideas, provided her reasoning for believing them to be valid, and encouraged women everywhere to be feminine and impactful as women, not as combatants to men, but as the necessary and valued other half of the human race.

We'd love to get your input on Dr. Grant's ideas when we discuss them at our Christian Book Club. We meet at Panera Bread, Austin Landing, Miamisburg/Springboro on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, at 6:30 pm.
