Sunday school- 9:45 a.m.
Sunday school is the foundational strategy in our local church for leading people to faith in Christ and discipling all in that faith. This occurs through weekly Bible study, fellowship, worship, prayer, and ministry. The three armed goal is discovering the Word together, fellowshipping together, and taking the Gospel to the community outside of the church together. The church family gathers to study God's Word in community on Sunday mornings at 9:45. Studying together brings out aspects of God's Word that otherwise may have gone unnoticed! There's also the fellowship aspect, as conversations, for some, happen more naturally during Sunday school than during the worship service.

Class Title: Change: The Book of John Led by: Roger Haas Duration: Fall-Winter 2024-2025 Class Style: Lecture Class Composition: Adult Co-Ed Class Location: Room 201 Overview: We will be studying the book of John, working our way through the book each Sunday. The theme for John is found in John 20:30. "Jesus performed many SIGNS in the presence of his disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written so that you may BELIEVE that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have LIFE in His name." Matthew, Mark, and Luke follow the same story line in the life of Jesus. But the Holy Spirit led John to be more selective in sharing the story of Jesus. For instance, all four gospel accounts describe the feeding of the 5,000. But only in John do we hear Jesus saying after the miracle, "I am the Bread of Life that has come down from heaven." Come meet with us as we study the book of John together. |
