Current Season: Advent

• Advent is the first season of the church year.
  • “Advent starts in the dark.” – Fleming Rutledge
  • Advent comes from the Latin adventus and the season is a look backward at Christ’s coming in history (as a baby), mystery (into our lives) and forward towards his coming in majesty (his return). We live in the shadows of Advent.

Current Sunday School Classes (9am):

• Mere Christianity
  • This class will study the first 10 chapters of the book Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis.  He emphasizes those beliefs which have been believed and taught by almost all Christians at all times. He wants to avoid the doctrinal disagreements among Christian groups.  His intention is to make Christianity more attractive to non-believers.  He starts with the Moral Rule as evidence for the existence of God and proceeds by steps to the crucifixion of Jesus and its implications for salvation and the Christian life. 
• The Gospel of Matthew
  • Join us to read the story of Jesus’ life, according to Mathew! Matthew is the first “Gospel” of the New Testament. The Four Gospels are pictures of Jesus’ life, written by followers in the first century! Join us to reflect on what the Gospels teach us about God, people, salvation, and how to follow Jesus!
