The Story of the Old Testament

When Paul said that "all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful" (2 Timothy 3:16), the New Testament had not yet been compiled.  He was referring to the Old Testament!  These 39 books make up 3/4 of the Bible, but their teaching is often neglected today.  For the next two quarters, adult Sunday morning classes will focus on developing an understanding of the storyline of the Old Testament in an attempt to build a foundation for further study.  The hope is that an adequate understanding of the big picture will entice those who participate in the classes to study the Old Testament more.  Even though this course focuses on Old Testament stories, each  week the classes will stress the relevance of those stories to our lives.

Wednesday

A Christian Looks at the Culture
Teacher – Steve Tandy


Have you ever read a news story about a current event or a current “moral or ethical dilemma” and wondered, “What should I think about that – as a Christian?” This class will help us learn to evaluate our culture from a biblical perspective. We will start with an up-to-date news item that raises a question and then turn to the Bible for our answers. [The class is invited to submit news items.]

Auditorium
Personal Evangelism
Teacher – Rob Dopps

Do you have a desire and excitement to share Jesus with those around you, but feel a little apprehensive and intimidated? If so, you’re not alone. We are offering a class that will help you put your desire into action and overcome your concerns. This class will provide an environment to not only learn from others with experience, but also to share ideas, strategies, successes, and encouragement with others trying to fulfill our Great Commission.
 Fireside Room
The Beatitudes
Teacher – Ryan Tandy

The Sermon on the Mount has long been rightly understood as both the starting point and a summation of Jesus' teaching. It begins with the Beatitudes, in which Jesus delineates the attributes of a person who is truly blessed. These attributes were in stark contrast to the ideals of society then, and we will see things haven't really changed in 2,000 years. In this class we will not only discover the way to True Happiness, we will also see the necessity of the New Birth, examine the Mind of Christ, and learn how we can please God and bring Glory to His Name. The Beatitudes are simply stated, yet profoundly deep in meaning. Our goal will be to dig deep and uncover the abundant life that God has in store for each of us.

 (Room 201-202)
