Bible Study Groups
This study is 100% remote using ZOOM and is made up of approximately 12 current and past Crestview members as well as several friends that are scattered across several states, representing a diverse denominational background of Christians. We exclusively use Right Now Media videos for our studies. This is a very laid-back study format, often taking several weeks to complete each of the episode’s study guides.
