Adult Christian Education

In Adult Christian Education, the focus is on how ideas in biblical passages relate to our everyday lives with consideration of societal issues & our individual relationships with neighbors, family, & God. The class uses various curriculum materials, usually in small blocks of about 4 weeks; these materials typically provide a study guide of 4 – 5 pages per week that serve as the basis for the week’s discussion. Often times, the lessons are planned to connect with the week’s sermon text & topic. All are welcome!
