"Norwood’s Notes"

Originally Sunday Worship Bulletin inserts written by Pastor Norwood on a variety of topics to build a basic Bible knowledge, aid in spiritual formation, and doctrinal understanding. As is the case with basic study aids like "Cliff's Notes" or "Monarch Notes," These notes are intended only as basic introductory overviews to encourage better understanding and further study.
