Sunday Classes 10:00 -10:50 am
This is the adult class time. The classes vary in topic and
scope, and are led by one of
the
pastors or by a lay person -- always inspirational. The
Christian Education Division is pleased to offer the following
Sunday morning classes starting September
20:
• Church
History in Plain Language (Howard
Crowley Room) Our journey continues! Learn who we are
and how we got here as we trace our spiritual ancestry
from the rocky hillsides of Judea through the struggles
in Europe to our own church today. Although this course
will take two years, you may attend any classes you wish.
Led by Dick Piper. Dates: January 3 - June 6
• Encounters
with Jesus: Studies in the Gospel of John by
Frances Taylor Gench. (Room #202) - Examining
thirteen central and distinctive texts from John, we will
be introduced to the theological, historical,
and literary keys of this gospel. Whether you are a well-read scholar
or a curious novice, you will enjoy our book study and discussions
of how this perplexing Gospel can inform our daily life and faith.
Dates: January 3- March 28
• Parenting:
The Early Years (Room #204) -
Are you paying attention to the people, events, and media
that influence your children? Using
this video series to explore questions of authority, love, discipline,
and family formation, we will discuss together how we become better
parents and faith leaders for our own families. Led by Lynn Shultz.
Dates: January 3- February 7
• Living
the Questions 2.0 (Courtyard Room) -
Faith is a journey, not a destination. To help us on that
journey,
Living the Questions
2.0, a 21-week DVD series, will provide us with an open-minded opportunity
to explore beyond the traditions and rote theologies in which so
many people and local churches seem to be stuck. Ideal for seekers
and "church alumni/ae" alike, come ask the questions you've
always wanted to ask, and discover with us the significance of Christianity
in the 215i century. Led by Garrett Torgerson. Dates: January 3-June
6
