2024-25 ADULTS & HSM, COLLEGE & YOUNG ADULTS CORE CLASSES

The Core Class is our initiative for "Sunday School" born out of a desire to do what "Sunday School" is meant to do, namely, disciple our congregants toward maturity in Jesus through learning Bible and theology.  This ministry year, we believe that the Core Class will be a place where our church can Grow in the GRACE God has GIVEN biblically and theologically and Go Serve in Community selflessly and compassionately DRIVEN by that GRACE for the Glory of Jesus and His Gospel.  We are Grace Given & Grace Driven!

 

SCHEDULE:

This Core Class will meet weekly during the Ministry Year (Sept.- May).

The Core Class is offered in 3 distinct settings:

  • Wednesday Nights, 7-8pm
    • in the Fireside Room for Adults
    • in Room 102 for HSM, Colloge and Young Adults
  • Sunday School hour, 11:30-12:30pm,
    • in the Fireside Room for Adults following the Sunday Worship Service

 

The Core Class will present the same teaching and material in all 3 settings by utilizing our subscription to RightNow Media and led by a terrific team of facilitators.  Our goal is for you to join us in discovering and displaying the Transformation that can only be experienced in and through Jesus Christ!

THE MYSTERY OF GRACE with Anand Mahadevan

The world constantly tells us that we are not enough. Work harder, earn more, climb higher, be better—the mandates are endless. While progress and excellence are certainly admirable traits, did God ever intend for us to be the best at everything at a high cost? What if God never meant for our lives to be an endless race? What if that gnawing, insatiable quest inside you can be replaced with something so simple that it changes your life inside out?

What if our primary calling was not to be successful but to be faithful?

In this five-part series, prominent journalist and pastor Anand Mahadevan revisits one of Jesus’s most popular parables—The Parable of the Talents—revealing how this parable is really an expression of God’s inexplicable grace. Find out how you can reach a place of high productivity and deep contentment as you live out God’s perfect plan for your life.
