The Latest News From Keys

...where the best news is 2000 years old - the Good News of Christ!

It is amazing how complex, inefficient and time and energy consuming it can be to maintain a non-profit organization status, even on top of the challenges of COVID! Keys will continue to offer discipleship training and materials, although we are letting the non-profit designation (and associated paper stuff) go. So, if you choose to make a donation, please be aware that it will be greatly appreciated and used wisely in the Lord’s service, but it will not be tax deductible. We have made the appropriate changes to Keys website Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

COVID!
I keep reminding myself that this terrible thing is a surprise to me, but it does not surprise God.

If the Lord does not deliver us from something, then his plan is to sustain us through whatever it is we face.

Keys training can continue in select situations where face-to-face is not wise at this time.

2018.January.20 - April.21

Well, looks like we will lead another of the “Connecting with Christ in Daily Living” classes at CBC San Antonio (Gold Canyon Campus). The classes will be offered on Saturdays, 9:30 - 11:30 AM, just like last semester. We will not meet on Saturday during Spring Break and March 31 (Easter weekend). If this can work for you, we hope you’ll join in!!

If you are interested in participating, be sure to pick up your copy of Feelings 102: Bible Studies for LIVING God’s Written Word at the CBC bookstore.

Also, bring your Bible (even if it is on your phone), a pen and a 1” 3-ring binder for handouts.

We look forward to seeing you in the New Year! What a great way to start it off... more connecting with Christ, Who loves you so very much!!

See you soon....

2017.September.9 - December.2

We were blessed to lead another “Connecting with Christ in Daily Living” class at CBC San Antonio (Gold Canyon Campus). What a wonderful group of believers!!

We really enjoyed the interaction and thought-filled questions in the classes, and we hope to offer the class again after the New Year.

This class builds on the Bible Study lessons in Feelings 102: Bible Studies for LIVING God’s Written Word, Vol. 1.

2017. March.7

For Feelings 102 Bible Studies users (3rd Edition).

We’ve added a PDF form version of two handouts that can accompany the Bible Studies book. With these you can fill out the tools on your laptop/PC fill-in-the-blank style. You can save them how you like and print no problem. If your handwriting is as terrible as mine, you might like these versions of the handouts. The hard copy PDF versions are still available too.

The form versions are now available for the ‘Painful Pattern Tool’ and for both pages of the ‘God’s Conversation with You in a Trial.’

Enjoy!!

The 3rd edition of the Feelings 102 Bible Studies book is now available. This improved edition incorporates some material that was previously offered separately as handouts when we did classes with this book. Also, the Lord had us improve the lessons so they include helping participants to open their hearts to the Lord and to discern things like...

- How am I being tempted?
- How is the Lord trying to grow me in this situation?
- How do I let the Lord live THE LIFE through me, or do I have to figure this out myself?
- What steps of faith God does wants me to take?

- NOTE... with the launching of our new and improved website, we decided to leave out the old news

and restart the news page to correspond to just before the new launch - hope you don't mind!

2015.December.1

Very excited that 2 more believers finished the Feelings 101 (see the “Hearing God’s Voice” page) training late last month. They both really put their hearts into the training and are experiencing a much stronger connection with Christ and a greater sense of His presence and hand in their lives! Was proud to be able to have the privilege of walking with them and assisting them in discerning God’s guidance to them for themselves. They were committed to the Lord and the training, and it was an awesome experience! Was also able to train another facilitator for the “Peace in Difficulties” Bible Study course (using the Feelings 102 book).

As a reminder, you don’t necessarily have to do the Feelings 101 course with the Keys trainer. The book is designed to walk you through it on your own. Also, the same is true for those who would be facilitators for the Feelings 102 Bible Study lessons. If you want to get notes for facilitators for the F102 lessons, find the link to the Supplemental Info page on the “Peace In Difficulties” page.

We are in the process of adding a new page with audio sermons from William Sr. If you are ever out of town, or just feel the need to hear a good message, check these out. This page is under the “More Free Stuff” navigation menu - look for “Audio Sermons.”

We had an awesome turn out at the 12-week Bible Study looking at trials in the Bible, in order to better prepare for our own! 32 folks! Had 4 believers go on to dive into the F101 Discipleship Training.
