9:00am Single Focus

9:00am // Room 216

For single adults age 40+ (and a few marrieds). We watch a video series from RightNow Media on a book of the Bible and have a lively, meaningful discussion as we share life application truths.

June 4-July 30: The Book of Nehemiah – “Whether we’ve felt spiritually stale or devoured by doubts, we’ve all wanted God to renew us. But what does spiritual restoration even look like? The book of Nehemiah tells the story of God’s power to restore his people. As Israel returned from exile to the Promised Land, they found the walls of Jerusalem in shambles. So God equipped Nehemiah to rebuild the wall and lead the discouraged Israelites. In this 10-session series, Dr. Eric Mason shows us how God renewed his people both physically and spiritually. Through the story of Israel’s plight and God’s faithfulness, we see how God preserved his people to carry out his mission of redemption.”

A Place for You

10:30Am // Room 215

Our first summer series will be Psalms: Real Help For Real People by Ray Ortlund. The Psalms give us insights into how the people praised, lamented, reached out to, and were comforted by God, as they do for us today.

The second summer series will have us looking at the Parables of Jesus. His stories spoke to the people of His time and helped them understand that the Kingdom of God was at hand. These timeless stories continue to help us better understand the Kingdom of God and the power of Jesus to change hearts.

Dr. Scott Kardatzke and Bruce Pearson lead this class, and special guest speakers will include Pastor George Skramstad and Dr. David Robinson. Join this warm gathering of adults for prayer, fellowship, snacks, and teaching.

Class 8:37

10:30am // Room 219

Class 8:37 is a multi-generational adult Bible fellowship where we discuss, learn, and grow together. Our goal is to study the entirety of Scripture over time. The next several months will include a study of what holy living looks like, followed by a look at some hard sayings from the Old Testament that we might find difficult to understand in our contemporary culture. We wrap up the summer with a short study of the books of Titus and Philemon. You are welcome to join our study and seasonal gatherings.
