Connections: Faith In Action

(Please note: this class is currently on hiatus and will resume in the coming weeks.)


Faith Journey

Location: Room 325 (Lower Level Sanctuary Building)

Class format is one of informal and interactive discussion. Everyone is encouraged to voice their opinion in a supportive and non-threatening atmosphere. As the name of the class suggests, the Christian walk is a “journey”, not an event. As we journey, we gain a deeper understanding of Christ’s teachings and become closer to Him, accomplished through learning and study of interesting and challenging topics. We are each at different stages along this life-long path and we each travel at a different pace but are all brothers and sisters in Christ and treat each other accordingly.

FISH

Location: Room 323 (Lower Level Sanctuary Building)

Believing that active fellowship and socialization are key elements in a healthy Christian environment, class members socialize frequently both inside and outside of class. Most classes feature DVD based studies combined with light reading, focusing discussions on class materials and current events. Class members are active in church and most have children.  For more information click here.

 

 

New Vision

Location:  Trailer 13

Our newest class is for those who may sense they are alone in being a “thinking” Christian. This 21-week small group study explores beyond the traditions and rote theologies in which so many people and local churches seem to be stuck. The class provides a safe environment where people have permission to ask the questions they've always wanted to ask but have been afraid to voice for fear of being thought a heretic. The format of each session includes a video, guided discussion, spiritual exercises and Bible study for practical applications.  

 

Parents of Young Disciples

Location: Library (End of Administrative Building)

Also a relatively new class formed for parents of young children (birth to 5th grade), it is also open for parents of older children, grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends. The environment provides opportunity to gather, learn and support each other in Christian love in the experience of raising children in today’s world. Variety of tools offered to take home and try. Group fellowship and serving opportunities are planned for the future. For more information click here.
