Sunday Morning Classes
Adult
Led by Carolyn Waters
Isaiah is the first of the major prophets where we discover the mighty promises of God. The better we understand God’s promises, the more completely we can know and trust His nature and character (Stedman. Adventuring Through the Bible.1997). What does Isaiah teach us about Israel's hope? Who is the suffering servant? How does Isaiah prepare the people for the coming of King Jesus? What responsibility do God's people have to care for those around them? Join us in a lively reading of what has been called “a miniature Bible” for good reason!
Led by Rev. Hubie Mann
Have you ever been confused or struggled to understand something that you read in the Bible? Guess what…you’re NOT alone! The Bible contains many different types of writing (such as History, Epistles, Narrative, Law, Prophecy, Poetry, etc.) and there are different principles of interpretation that apply to each type of writing. In this class, we’ll focus upon understanding the meaning of the Old Testament Law along with the Prophetic Books in the Bible.
Led by Terri Mann and Eric Horton
Come join fellow parents of infants to high schoolers as we support one another through the challenges of raising Christian kids in an ever increasingly secular world. This semester we’re studying the Letter of James using a video study produced by Francis Chan. Through 12 sessions, Chan works through James verse-by-verse, challenging followers of Christ to move beyond a private, intellectual knowledge of God and His Word, to a vibrant faith that impacts every square inch of life…including parenting!
Led by Rick Sloss and Mark Shreiner
The book of Psalms is forever known as the “Prayer Book of the Bible.” Our Lord, Jesus Christ, quoted and prayed with the Psalms. In class we will read many Psalms and talk about them as Spirit inspired scripture worthy and suitable for our daily prayers. Come, join us, and, together, help us learn to pray with the Psalms!

Do you have a favorite IRS agent? Probably not. But Jesus did. His name was Matthew. He was an apostle of Jesus and was with Jesus every step of the way. He was methodical in his notetaking (as CPA’s are) and presents his findings in his Gospel. One of Matthew’s emphases was showing the fulfillment of Old Testament prophesies about the Messiah so we will be connecting a lot of the Old Testament prophesies with Matthew’s Gospel. This class will meet for the entire year and there will be lots of discussion to relate this magnificent Gospel to our lives today.
Youth
The Youth Group meets in the Youth Room for Bible Study led by our Director of Youth and College Ministries, Lilli Roy.
Kids
Kids ages 5yo (by 9/30) through 5th grade can grow in their faith in a fun and safe environment after Wednesday Night Dinner.
