We will support and instruct one another from the Bible in how to be the men our heavenly ABBA wants us to be. This time focuses on men becoming Godly Gentlemen in the manner of Our Lord, using strength under control to benefit those we love. ABBA is a ministry by and for men of ALL ages. Come join this exciting new study every Sunday morning starting January 13th during the Sunday School hour.
