Equip Sunday School
Adult Sunday School Opportunities
March 1 - May 17
All classes are held at 10:00 am
The Old Testament Experience
Adult Bible Study Class, Room A-212
While the Old Testament tells God’s story through history, many themes get repeated time and again. The Adult Bible Study will take up one of these themes each week so that we may better learn what it means to be God’s people today. Each Sunday “stands alone” so come any Sunday!
1 and 2 Peter
Eagle’s Wing Class Room, A-211
1 and 2 Peter were written to encourage a congregation that was experiencing suffering. Come learn about this timeless message with a class that also encourages one another through community and prayer.
The Book of James
Open Circle Class Room, A-216
Have you ever seen a bumper sticker that says, “Your actions are so loud, I can’t hear what you are saying?” If James were alive today, this might be one of his favorite sayings, right below “Jesus is Lord.” Come join this discussion-driven study about how our faith in Jesus must be expressed in our actions.
1 and 2 Timothy
Students of the Word Class Room, A-208
These letters are personal letters that Paul wrote to Timothy, a young pastor who was leading the church in Ephesus. Through Paul’s words of encouragement to his spiritual son, we continue to learn much about the Lord’s desire for the church and for disciples.
Mere Christianity
Younger Adults Class Room, A-215
Come enjoy conversation, community, and a study of the C.S. Lewis classic, Mere Christianity, led by Scott and Margaret Wray, Jonathan Hilliard, and Steven Rubin. The class will explore Lewis’ compelling arguments for embracing Christianity through engaging videos that bring the text to life.
SUMMER SUNDAY SCHOOL
MAY 24-AUGUST 9
During the summer, we offer a combined Sunday School opportunity for all adults. This class will focus on a different topic each week so you can come any Sunday and join in the discussion.
Big and Bad Words
Room B-100
Have you ever heard the preacher drop a word in his or her sermon that makes you scratch your head in confusion; or heard a phrase thrown around in church conversations as if it was normal (but it’s anything but)? Or, maybe there’s a faith word you understand but just don’t like and would rather avoid (because who likes to talk about iniquity!)?
Each week in Sunday School this summer, we’ll talk about the BIG and/or BAD words of the faith. If you have a suggestion of a word we should study, there is a suggestion box at the Welcome Desk (by Fellowship Hall) and Information Desk (Worship Center), or you may e-mail Pastor Amy at amyc@1stpres.com.
