Jesus: The God Who Knows Your Name

Men's Class
Led by: Keith Elmore

Do you ever feel like Jesus couldn’t possibly know what you are going through? He’s the God of the universe after all! Does He really know your daily struggles? The good news is: He does.

 

For thirty-three years Jesus felt everything you have ever felt: weakness, weariness, sadness, rejection. His feet got tired and His head ached. He was tempted and His strength was tested. And you know why? Because in becoming human, Jesus made it possible for us to see God. His tears, God’s tears. His voice, God’s voice. Want to know what matters to God? Find out what matters to Jesus. Want to know what in the world God is doing? Ponder the words and life of Jesus.

He's Where the Joy Is

Women's Class
Led by: Robin Jewell

It’s hard to know a God we don’t understand, and it’s hard to love a God we don’t know. But our God wants to be known and loved, and He’s told us a lot about Himself in the pages of His Word.

Join Tara-Leigh Cobble in this 7-session study as she breaks down the intimidating doctrine of the Trinity. You’ll discover a beautiful, foundational view of our Triune God that will transform how you relate to Him. Understanding God’s three-in-oneness and each of the Persons of God individually—Father, Son, and Spirit—will lead you to deeper intimacy with God and greater joy in knowing Him!

1, 2, 3 John

Co-Ed Class
Led by: Bro. Tommy Fike

These 3 letters address fundamentals that every child of God should know, and at times be reminded of. Even though they are short in length, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd John are long on doctrine. Fellowship, worldliness, righteousness, brotherly love, concern, and false teaching are present. Also in these epistles, we have set in contrast basic Biblical themes that run throughout the New Testament. Light and darkness, love and hate, and children of God.  Join us as we dig a little deeper.

Lies Young Women Believe

Teen Girls Class
Led by: Amanda Elmore

You have been lied to! Have you been deceived? Trying to listen to the right voices can be difficult. Maybe your heart is telling you that parts of your life are off-course. Certain habits and relationships have left you confused and lonely. This is not the way it’s supposed to be.

 

Through a nationwide survey and in-depth discussion groups, Nancy and Dannah have listened carefully to the heart of your generation. In this book, they expose 25 of the lies most commonly believed by teen girls. They share real-life accounts from some of the young women they interviewed, along with honest stories about how they’ve overcome lies they themselves believed. They get down in the trenches of the battle with you. Best of all, they’ll show you how to be set free by the truth.

The Case for Christ

Teen Guys Class
Led by: Bro. Mitchell Herron

Is there credible proof that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God? In The Case for ChristLee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune and New York Times bestselling author, retraces his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith and builds a captivating case for Christ’s divinity.

 

In this revised and updated edition of The Case for Christ, Strobel cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools such as Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis, asking hard-hitting questions–and taking a deeper look at the evidence from the fields of science, philosophy, and history.

 

In his comprehensive investigation, Strobel doesn’t shy away from challenging questions, including:

  • How reliable is the New Testament?
  • Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible?
  • Is Jesus who he said he was?
  • Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?
  • What does all of the evidence point to–and what does it mean today?

Kindergarten - 3rd Grade Kids Class

Led by: Stephanie Register
Located in Children's Department

Our kids will be building on the lessons they are learning in Sunday School using The Gospel Project. The Gospel Project is designed to help your kids LEARN the gospel story of Scripture, LOVE the Author and Subject of that gospel story, and then to LIVE out their part in this ongoing gospel story.

 

Our kid’s discipleship lessons have an emphasis on learning to practice spiritual disciplines. Our goal is to equip them with both the tools they need personally and the tools they need practically to guide them toward practices that form their spirit toward Christlikeness!
