Scripture Circle
Welcome to the Red River Scripture Circles Podcast. Our purpose is to keep the conversation flowing and to include diverse voices in the discussion on Scripture and life as together we discover God’s original intent for creation. We do this by gathering together in groups of 8-15 people and looking at the Hebrew Scripture in the original language, culture, history, and context that it was written, and then asking questions that draw us deeper into the story. You are invited to join the conversation that continually invites us to find ourselves in a much Larger Story.
