Bible Classes
We strive to maintain Bible classes for all ages, and we work hard to do it well. We believe in biblical accuracy and sound doctrine, and we also believe in excellence. To that end, our Bible classes for adults are designed to be biblical, balanced, and practical, combining depth of study with the goal of making real-world applications.
We have classes on Sunday mornings (beginning at 9:00 am) and class on Wednesday evenings (beginning at 7:00 pm). We welcome all to join us in our studies.
Beginning Sunday, July 6th Classes for July - September 2025 for adults
Sundays - 9AM
Persuasion with Doy Moyer. God’s people are a persuaded people who want to persuade others to follow Christ. What, then, is the role of persuasion in our attempts to speak to others about Jesus? Why is persuasion important and what do the Scriptures say about it? We will look at matters like reasoning, explaining, proving, emotions, and other related issues. Meeting in the downstairs classroom near the stairs.
Romans (Part 1) with Kyle Pope. Paul's epistle to the church in Rome has been described as "the gospel according to Paul," in that it explains to us the significance of Christ's coming to earth. In this class we will devote two quarters to examining the wonders of this beautiful book. Meeting in the downstairs classroom near the elevator.
College & Careers: Mark the Evangelist with Michael Ellerbusch / Jeremy Schrimsher. The Gospel of Mark is the shortest and most fast-paced Gospel, emphasizing what Jesus did rather than lengthy teachings. With a narrative that captures attention quickly through short-form content and storytelling style, it speaks to people overwhelmed by the noise and distraction of modern society. With an unapologetic purpose of proclaiming Jesus as the Son of God and emphasis on direct call to discipleship (“Deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Me.” Mark 8:34), Mark offers an authentic introduction of Jesus to a struggling and fearful culture marked by injustice, suffering, and confusion. It is quick and raw enough for today’s digital culture, deep enough to comfort broken hearts, bold enough to challenge cultural complacency, and clear enough to make Jesus known. Meeting in the upstairs adult classroom.
Wednesdays - 7PM
Joshua: The Lord will do Wonders with Doy Moyer. We will survey the book of Joshua with special emphasis on the people who played such a vital role in Israel’s conquest of the Promised Land. How did God bring about the fulfillment of His promise that was initially made to Abraham? What kind of faith do we find demonstrated? What can we learn as we seek to serve the Lord today? How may we be encouraged to serve God in the midst of so many distractions and efforts to keep us from full commitment? Meeting in the downstairs classroom near the elevator.
The History of Israel from David to the Exile (Part 1) with Kyle Pope. The Holy Spirit has preserved Israel's history in several different historical books as well as the Minor Prophets that wrote during this period. During this class (that will span two quarters), we will harmonize the content in these different inspired records to consider what God would teach us about Israel during this time. Meeting in the downstairs classroom near the stairs.
College & Careers: Jesus is Better: A Study of Hebrews with Joshua Creel. We live in a world where many things vie for our attention and our affection. God has blessed us with careers, family and numerous blessings to enjoy… but He would also have us remember that Jesus is better than all of them. The book of Hebrews was written to saints who were tempted to leave Jesus for something else. The message they needed to hear is the same one we need to hear in our busy and cluttered lives: Jesus is better! Meeting in the upstairs adult classroom.
