ABFs are the bridge between the large worship service and individual care. They provide age and life-stage fellowship more specifically than in worship time and help individuals make friends and develop relationships.
The prophet Ezra was a man who lived by the book, devoting himself to the study, observance and teaching of God's Word (Ezra 7:10). Likewise, we aspire to do the same by studying the Bible one book at a time. The teaching method is expository (verse-by-verse); the style is casual, allowing for interaction and discussion. The hour will also include fellowship and prayer.
