Fall Sunday school
Sunday school begins September 8, 915a. Everyone is encouraged to participate. Come early enough to get your coffee and join in. It is important for God’s people to be immersed in His word often and repeatedly. The regular exposure places God’s word in our minds and hearts ready for the Holy Spirit to teach and convict us. Class descriptions for the semester are below. Please choose from the two classes offered.
- The Promise Keeper, The God of the Covenants will be led by Eric Mardian in the sanctuary. These days there’s much talk of promises particularly in an election year. Most of the time, the focus is on man's promises rather than on God's promises. But as we have all experienced, the promises of sinful man fail time and time again. In this 12-week Ligonier Ministries video series “The Promise Keeper, The God of the Covenants”, R.C. Sproul demonstrates that the one true Promise Keeper always keeps His promises through an overarching covenant relationship of grace as recorded for us in Scripture. By examining the various forms of this ‘Covenant of Grace’ in the Bible, Dr. Sproul explains how God, throughout history, has and is fulfilling His long-promised plan of redemption of His people. You’ll learn about the Creation Covenant, Noahic Covenant, Abrahamic Covenant, Mosaic Covenant, Davidic Covenant, and the New Covenant – each a reflection of the continuing, expanding work of God’s grace. The videos and discussion will help participants further grasp that they can trust in God’s promises because He is the Promise Keeper.
- The Five ‘’Solas” of the Reformation will be led by Allen Utzig in the conference room. “Sola” is a latin term meaning ‘alone’ and these five foundational principles (Scripture Alone, Christ Alone, Grace Alone, Faith Alone and The Glory of God Alone) encapsulate the core Biblical beliefs that arose out of the Reformation. These Biblical ideas distinguished the “reformers” and their understanding of the Scriptures from the Roman Catholic teachings of that day. This series of classes will explore the historical back story that led to the Reformation and discuss the Biblical basis for each of these “Solas”.
