      <image:title>About RRSC</image:title>
      <image:caption>“One of my favorite experiences with Scripture Circles is seeing myself or another find themself in the story. These aha moments light up not only the room we are in, but also the room of my heart. The aha moments help me to realize how connected we all are and the importance of exploring our stories together. ” - Preston Hall</image:caption>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “I have looked at the scriptures differently than I have ever looked at them. Getting so in depth into the scriptures verse by verse has been wonderful! Every scripture circle I have attended has changed my knowledge and hit my heart in different ways each and every time!”</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “A lavshama-ah – hearing the heart behind the words that someone says. I tried to do this before I had the knowledge of why. I ended up feeling empty, but now, I understand people’s hearts when they are speaking.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “Studying with Noah and Alan has rekindled our fire for reading the Word – particularly diving deep into the Old Testament from a new perspective. Learning more about the original Hebrew language and cultural context has shed light on scripture in a way we Protestants aren’t always familiar with, and the knowledge they have to share has been so rich!”</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “Red River Scripture Circles opens conversation with others in our community who can safely share their voices, their perspectives, and their experiences. This has helped me grow in my faith! Every circle I attend, even if we study verses from a previous circle, I feel I leave transformed. I am never the same person walking out as I was walking in.”</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “It has been fun gathering with people who are interested in diving into the scriptures from a different lens and discussing with openness and curiosity. When we come together, background, denomination, church membership and other “qualifiers” don’t matter. The scripture and the God of the scripture are the focus and that’s what unites us. The sessions go so fast – three hours isn’t enough! They leave you wanting more!”</image:title>

      <image:title>Testimonials - “RRSC started at a time when I was already learning something similar so it added to the legitimization of this method of Bible study. The community and teaching style was new and fresh. It brought the Old Testament to life in such a rich way. The themes resonate through the Bible in a way I never noticed before.”</image:title>
