Every serious believer longs to summon up the kind of boldness and faith that can stand firm on Mount Carmel and pray down heaven into impossible situations. Yet few are willing to go through the process required to get them there.
Strength of faith, character, and boldness can only be shaped in the hidden fires of silence, sameness, solitude, and adversity. Those who patiently wait on God in the darkness emerge with their holy loyalty cemented, their courage emblazoned, and their confident belief in Him set afire.
Join Priscilla Shirer on this 7-session journey through the life and times of the prophet Elijah to discover how the fire on Mount Carmel was forged in the valley of famine. And how the emboldened, fiery faith you desire is being fashioned by God in your life right now.

A Co-Ed Study
Led by: Bro. Joseph Falcione
Located in Classroom above Conference Center
Anyone who has ever grown up in the church has heard the phrase, “Read your Bible.” But unfortunately, the church has failed in many ways to teach Christians the skills needed to read the Bible. In the same way that we learn rules to a game before playing, Christians must also learn the rules to the Bible. In Grasping God’s Word, you are going to head on a journey to learn how to interpret and apply the Bible to your life daily.
Part 1 of this class will focus on the basics of reading, interpreting, and applying the Bible. We will look at an interpretive journey to guide us in understanding the Bible. We will learn how to discover and apply context. Finally, we will learn how to identify the meaning and application of a text of Scripture to our own lives.

The Bible, a worldwide bestseller. It has more than forty authors covering fifteen hundred years in three different languages. How does it all work together? We’ll take a glimpse into seeing the Old Testament in a new light.
We’ve all either heard or said, “I thought I knew the Old Testament because I have heard so many sermons/stories from it so many times.” But do we understand how it all fits together, does it make sense to us?
This study will show the framework of how the Old Testament all fits together perfectly. Once we have that framework in place, our prayer is the books, the stories will become even more significant to us, more highly cherished than ever before because as a child of God, adopted into His family, it’s our history, our heritage.
A Kids Class
Led by: Stephanie Register
Located in Children's Department
Kids will learn that in the beginning, God created everything for His glory and our good. When sin entered the world in the Garden of Eden and spread to people, creation appeared to be ruined. But as God established a covenant with Abraham, He proved that nothing is outside of His plan or control to redeem His creation from sin.
Building on lessons they are learning in Sunday School, this class provides a separate discipleship experience for kids designed around the spiritual disciplines!
A Preschool Class
Led by: Kimmie McKee
Located in Preschool Department
While their parents learn more about God and His Word, preschoolers will be learning how to talk to God! They will grow to learn that when we pray, we are talking to God, just like they talk to their mommy and daddy. We can thank God for things he’s given us, ask him for help, and talk to him when we’re scared.
During their class, little ones will learn that:
- They can thank God for all the great things he has done for them.
- They can ask God for help in every situation.
- They can talk to God whenever they are afraid – he loves us and will help us not be afraid anymore.
- They don’t just pray for themselves but for other people too.
