Connect, Learn, Grow
Sunday Adult Classes
Adult classes meet on Sunday mornings at 9:15am. Their purpose is to exalt Jesus and to keep Him at the center of our lives. Our desire is to equip and encourage people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. It is also an opportunity for people to connect in a smaller setting beyond the large church gathering.
We have ongoing classes that meet throughout the year as well as four to six-week elective classes to help people know Him better, understand and apply the Word to everyday living and to learn life skills for living in the family of Jesus as well as in our homes, neighborhoods, workplaces and community.
No registration is necessary for our Sunday classes unless otherwise noted. You are welcome to simply show up any Sunday and give them a try. We certainly hope you do!

How NOT to Read the Bible
Hosted by Connection Point Class
Facilitated by Don Westerberg
Deschutes Room; 9:15am Sundays
We will be resuming our class on September 13, as we begin our study with the video series by Dan Kimball entitled How (NOT) to Read the Bible. Offering context and critical principles of interpretation, Kimball explores five common biblical stumbling blocks---its relationship to science, the violence in Scripture, its treatment of women, strange-sounding commands, and the claim that there is only one way to know God. A companion book is available and recommended to purchase. All are welcome. Please join us.
Join us Sundays in September at 9:15am in the Deschutes Room.
