Using facilitated group discussions, where everybody has a chance to participate and learn, we may dig into the wisdom and instruction of God's word in a Bible study, or dive into a multi-media Christian living course that explores issues like parenting, loving, managing time and money, and other life lessons based on Scripture.

At least two Adult Education classes are held most Sundays throughout the year. These classes offer a wonderful opportunity to nurture your faith, be in community with others, and grow in Christ as you begin to understand and fulfill God's purposes for you on earth.

The Prodigal God
January 3 - February 7, 11:00 a.m., Chapel

Two sons, one who kept the rules religiously and one who broke them all. One Father who loved both lost sons beyond anything they could imagine. Discover how deep and far God's grace goes in The Prodigal God. This multi-media class will help will help you uncover, personalize and apply life-changing insights from The Prodigal God DVD and book. Pastor and author Timothy Keller opens your eyes to the powerful message of Jesus' best-known--and least understood--parable. The Prodigal God is a revelation of the very heart of the gospel: God's radical love for sinners of every kind. Taking you beyond the traditional focus on the wayward younger son, Keller helps you glean insights from each of the characters in Jesus' parable: the irreligious younger son, the moralistic elder .
