Sunday School Classes
Sunday Morning 9:45-10:45


There are Church School classes for 3 year olds through adults that meet at various locations around the church. This time of Christian learning is filled with opportunities to grow spiritually, learn the Bible, and find new friends in faith who would like to join you on your Christian journey.

Adult Classes
Perspectives Class
Who is Jesus/Who was Jesus

The Perspectives Class will continue their discussion on Who is Jesus/Who was Jesus by Marcus Borg. Dr. Jim Threlkel and Mr. Glenn Thomas facilitate this class. Feel free to drop in this fall even if you didn’t participate last year. This class meets in the Geneva Room.
Bob Hubbard
Beginning on Sunday, December 6, you have the opportunity to join discussion leader Bob Hubbard in a study of the history, literature, and religion of ancient Israel and early Judaism as presented in the pages of the Old Testament. This will not be your typical Bible study class! It will center around a lecture series presented on DVD by Professor Amy-Jill Levine of Vanderbilt University Divinity School. Although this is a college level course, Dr. Levine has a delightful and very down-to-earth teaching style that anyone will be able to understand and learn from. This class will run for 24 weeks, through May 23, 2010. Each lecture lasts about 30 minutes and will be followed by class discussion or question time. The DVD will be started PROMPTLY at 9:55 a.m., so please be in your seats by then, with your seatbelts fastened, so you don’t miss any of the scenery on this fascinating and eye-opening journey through the pages of Part One of the world’s best-selling book. Advance preparation for the class is not required, but you might want to re-read Chapter 1 of Genesis before the first class.

Senior High School
Middle School
Middle School and High School Youth meet in the Student Center as they share in discussions that focus on the major events and teachings in Jesus’ life. Both groups meet together for a time of prayer and fellowship and then break into two separate groups for sharing. These classes are taught by a rotation of volunteers from our congregation.

Kindergarten - Fifth Grade Rotation Workshop
Children in kindergarten through fifth grade will focus on Creation this fall with their Workshop Rotation. During this six week lesson, children will be able to experience the Bible story through computers, art, science, storytelling, cooking, and movies.
Preschool Children
Preschool Children will meet in CE108 for their fabulous Sunday School time filled with singing, crafts, and a Bible Story.
