Heart of a Man
God creates the heart of man with an identity and a calling. Men are created to receive God’s redeeming grace, to be called sons of the Lord, and to join with God in His mission to care for creation and the people made in God’s image. The world may fear, and even attack, the masculine heart, but it is absolutely necessary for us to thrive and live in healthy relationships. In this 7-week series, led by Jonathan Wallace, we will explore the core relationships and the core responsibilities to love that are wired in the masculine heart.
Women of the Word
We all know how important it is to study God's Word, but sometimes it’s hard to know where or how to start. Life throws us many challenges in taking the time to gain the knowledge of Scripture. How can we, as Christian women, keep our focus and sustain our passion when reading the Bible? Join us in this class led by Christina Horton as we journey through "Women of the Word" by Jen Wilkin. This book offers a clear and concise plan to help women go deeper in their study of Scripture, while also equipping us to engage God’s Word in a way that trains your mind and transforms your heart.
Heaven
This class is a walk through and study of a book written by Randy Alcorn, led by Jeff Edwards and Jason Grissom. We all have questions about what Heaven will be like, and after twenty-five years of extensive research, Dr. Randy Alcorn has the answers. In the most comprehensive and definitive book on Heaven to date, Randy invites you to picture Heaven the way Scripture describes it―a bright, vibrant, and physical New Earth, free from sin, suffering, and death, and brimming with Christ’s presence, wondrous natural beauty, and the richness of human culture as God intended it. This is a book about real people with real bodies enjoying close relationships with God and each other, eating, drinking, working, playing, traveling, worshiping, and discovering on a New Earth. Earth as God created it. Earth as he intended it to be. The next time you hear someone say, “We can’t begin to image what Heaven will be like,” you’ll be able to tell them, “I can.”
Book of Daniel
Join us as we dive verse by verse into the prophecies found in the book of Daniel in this class led by Raymond Flores. We will discover how these prophecies are the key to unlocking all biblical prophecy as Daniel explained the past and the future of Israel and Gentile nations according to the divine plan and purposes of God.
