Adult Classes


Adult Christian Life
(Co-ed) Location: F1

In this quarter, we will turn our attention to the Old Testament for a series of lessons that are very relevant for us today.  We will study how best to live for God in changing times, the importance of community, and the value of tradition and wisdom.  We will first look at “Listening for God in Changing Times”.  These lessons drawn primarily from the book of Judges, show us how the leaders of Israel looked to God during turbulent times.

Next, we transition to “A Case Study in Community”, which is a series of lessons drawn primarily from the book of Ruth.  Ruth’s decision to live with Naomi had lasting consequences in helping to establish a community of servants of God.

Finally, we will turn to “Teaching and Learning”.  These lessons, drawn from the book of Proverbs, give us examples of wisdom handed down from generation to generation, from parent to child, and explore how that wisdom can have an impact on us today.

Instructors:  Rev. Leo Verrett, Sis. Priscilla Harris



YOU  I
(Co-ed) Location: LL5

LORD, WHEN…?  Seasons of waiting aren’t the end of the world.

Does it feel like God has pushed the pause button on your life? If you're frustrated by God's apparent slowness, don't assume that having to wait is a waste of time. God does some of his most important work in your life during these divine delays.

Many of the men and women of faith that we read about in the Bible had to endure long, difficult seasons of waiting before they could fulfill God's destiny for their lives. And just like these biblical heroes, you can learn how to see what God is doing - and how he is changing your life - while you're waiting.


Don't miss out on the richness of this God-ordained lag between catching a vision for your calling and seeing God fulfill it. No matter how long you have to wait, you can be transformed as God prepares you to fulfill your divine calling.

Bible Study Exposition (Co-ed) Location: LL2a

Learn about God’s grace, truth, and redemption. Written by the apostle Paul for the church in Rome, this letter provides theological truths and practical application for the Christian faith and life. 

In this book, Paul is overjoyed to share his message of good news and eternal salvation with the church.  Focusing on God’s righteousness that comes by grace alone through faith in Christ, Romans underscores that Christianity is more than just a doctrine—it is an essential roadmap for daily living.
