β€’ Bible Study: His grace is more than sufficient (baptistpress.com) β€” A local connection shines through this week’s Bible study as Emily Duncan, a youth leader at New Hope First Baptist Church in Dallas reflects on how God’s grace sustains people through hardship. Drawing on 2 Corinthians, she encourages believers to lean on God’s strength rather than self-reliance, highlighting how weakness can deepen faith and dependence on Christ’s power.
