Responding to Life’s Curveballs Teacher: Danny Giffen Room E-204
Explore how we deal with struggles in our Christian journey - how we respond to suffering, trials, and tragedy. Scripture practically and sympathetically provides us both assurance and hope in Christ.
Seven Profound Proverbs Teacher: Chris Peters Room E-206
Through truths concerning money, temptation, work, family, character and consequences, we receive grace of God’s wisdom, realize more our need for grace of God’s salvation, and commit to seek God’s grace for a more obedient life.
The West in Crisis Teacher: Larry Taunton Room S-100
We will consider the rise of “Western” culture, it’s Christian foundation and how it has slipped in its Christian moorings; consequently, thus, seems impotent to resist the double threat of secularism and Islam
Boundaries Teacher: Steve Singletary Room S-104
Healthy boundaries maximize our love for others and minimize destructive patterns that cripple us. What are healthy boundaries? How can we begin to implement them in our lives?
Seven Parables of Jesus Teacher: T. J. Wolters Room E-201
Parables are mirrors that show us the reality of this world and of the God’s kingdom. They help us to understand who Jesus is, who we are, what He came to accomplish and how to live out our faith.
