SUNDAY ADULT CLASS OPTIONS – WINTER TERM 2022
January 2 through February 27
1. The Story of Redemption (Gymnasium;
Coordinator: Loren Wisehart)
This
series presents the biblical account of the human problem, salvation, and a new
life in Jesus Christ. Beginning with creation, the class follows the “big
picture” storyline of the Bible as it finds meaning and completion in Jesus.
Each
week, participants are invited to arrive early for fellowship. Upon entering
the gymnasium, participants will be assisted in finding a small group. After a
call to order and welcome, all groups will watch a 5–10-minute video. Once the
video is done, groups will read a Bible passage related to the video, discuss
questions, and pray for one another. Groups will wrap up at 9:45 a.m. in order
to move chairs into place for the large assembly which begins at 10:15 am. Zoom

The
topic and text for Sunday, February 13th, the topic and text will be
Jesus Calms the Storm (Matthew 8:23-27).
2. Women’s Ministry (Library; Coordinators: Sue
Underwood and Kim Story)
This
class provides Bible-based content in a LIFE Talk setting and is set up to
minister to women who are the head of their household and women whose husbands
are not Christians. Women of all ages and situations are welcome who wish to
participate in this ministry. The class is generally organized to alternate
between Old Testament and New Testament books, topics, and ideas. However,
prayer and sharing are also integral parts of the class. As participants begin
to apply the teaching to their own lives, they are invited to openly share burdens with one another. This is so that
others who have walked that path previously can share their own experience and
wisdom in how to face that situation faithfully. While two ladies provide the
principal oversight for the class, a number of ladies from within the class
will be encouraged to lead individual sessions, usually a week or two at a
time.
WEDNESDAY
ADULT CLASS OPTIONS – WINTER 2022
January 5 through March 2
1. Generational
Discipleship (Room 200; Leader: Daniel Alavi)
The Church in the West is facing a steep decline,
yet the Body of Christ worldwide is thriving like never before. The center of
Christianity is slowly moving towards the Global South, into areas and people
groups where the church has virtually no major denominational leanings, no
governmental recognition or legitimacy, no bank accounts, no 501c3s, no Bible
Schools or seminaries, and no assets, properties, or buildings. In spite of
this, hundreds of churches are being planted, thousands of disciples are being
made, and millions are being baptized into the name of Jesus!
2. God’s
Promises Fulfilled in the Gospel According to Matthew (FLC; Leader: Loren
Wisehart)
In the Old
Testament, God made some amazing promises to people like Abraham, Israel, and
David. These promises established how God related with His people for
centuries. In the New Testament, one of the things that distinguishes Matthew’s
biography of Jesus from other similar accounts is how from cover to cover, he
demonstrates how Jesus fulfills these promises. In this short overview of the
Gospel According to Matthew, we will examine how Jesus fulfills these promises
and explore how they remain relevant for our lives today. This class can either
be in-person or join in on Zoom. Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86363371603?pwd=cjM1bmFxZ0kyTU5SR1VQUlN2QlpOZz09
