Serve Our Church
Serve Our City & World
If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will be my servant also (John 12:26).
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another (1 Peter 4:10).
December 2024 Sunday Classes
Sunday Classes help us go deeper into theology, cultural issues, and practical Christian living.
All around us, cultural pressure is increasing and theological literacy is declining. There is increasing confusion and dysfunction. As a result, we believe that an hour of worship and preaching is no longer enough to fully equip the church for its calling in this age. Sunday Classes will help us go deeper into theology, cultural issues, and practical Christian living.

1. Advent and Incarnation
This class will take us deeper into the truth we celebrate at Christmas, the Incarnation of Jesus Christ.

5. Pray the Bible
Faithful, faith-filled prayer is not easy. So what is easy? For prayer to become rote and repetitive rather than a real part of a relationship with God. This class will explore how to find motivation and creativity for life-giving prayer through God’s word using the tools taught in Donald Whitney’s book Praying the Bible. The class is not a book study, but rather a practicum, with time for instruction, examples, practice, and reflection.
