Vows Premarital

Each class will be taught by highly skilled professional counselors who specialize in the week’s topic. The class is offered twice each year taking place in February and August. The topics that are covered include: a biblical foundation of marriage, communication, conflict resolution, family of origin, marital expectations, relationship roles, affection, intimacy, relational-joy, and much more.

 Thrive: Women in the Word

Fall 2023 — Registration Open

Thrive is a gathering of women from all walks of life who seek to study God’s Word together. It’s our desire to constantly grow in our knowledge and understanding of God through exploring different biblically-based studies. Our newest study will be “A Study on Prayer” from Kelly Minter, Jackie Hill Perry, Jen Wilkin, Jennifer Rothschild, Jada Edwards, and Kristi McLelland.

Do you have trouble thinking of words to say to God when you pray? Are you afraid some emotions are too intense to express to God? Do you reach the end of a day only to realize you haven’t prayed at all? You’re not alone. Prayer is the way we relate to God, but sometimes it’s a struggle. Throughout God’s Word, we encounter many voices who teach us how to pray.

In this study, join with six beloved Bible teachers who will help you study prayers in the Bible that can inspire your own. You’ll learn that God welcomes your praise and lament, your thanksgiving and intercession. You’ll see examples of how to pray when you’re alone and when you’re gathered with others. Above all, you’ll notice there’s no one right way to pray. As you draw near to God through prayer, you’ll find your faith strengthened and your heart united to Christ.

Our next study will be “The Gospel of Mark — the Jesus We’re Reaching For” by Lisa Harper. This 7-lesson video study follows Jesus through His early ministry to the cross. Throughout his account, Mark unveils a Jesus of unparalleled power and authority but also a Jesus of humility and love. And while this Jesus invites each of us into a greater story through His teachings, He demands we come as active participants. We must acknowledge Him, seek salvation in Him, and follow Him wherever He leads. In The Gospel of Mark, you’ll discover what it means to be the recipients of Jesus’ overflowing compassion and the very reason for His all-consuming passion. Lisa Harper is a master storyteller and sought-after Bible teacher and author known for her authenticity.

The Joy-Filled Relationship

Spring 2023 — Registration Closed 

We were all designed to find fulfillment within our relationships; however, that does not take place without challenges. Why is it that we sometimes feel more connected than other times in our relationships? Perhaps you find it easy and exciting to spend time with your loved ones—or perhaps, especially when things do not go according to plan, you feel incapable of connecting or communicating with them. You then feel distant from those you love most. What if the answer to remaining connected in your relationships has been right under your nose—or, rather, right inside your head all along? Discover the simple switch in your brain that activates—or deactivates—what you most need for relational connectivity: joy. In this class, you will learn how the simple flip of this brain switch either enables you to remain present for those around you or causes you to become overwhelmed—and ultimately inhibited from being your best self when challenges arise. You’ll also learn how to maximize your relational brain, how to recognize when your brain’s joy switch is flipped, and how to take steps to restore your relational connectivity. Whether you are married or wanting to deepen your relationships with others, the Joy-Filled Relationship class seeks to help you love others and remain fully connected with yourself, while being the best version of who God made you to be.

Jesus, Atheism, and the Case for Christianity

Spring 2023 — Registration Closed 

“Honor the Messiah as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you. However, do this with gentleness and respect.” (1 Peter 3:15-16a) As Christians, the challenges to our faith are fired at many angles by a skeptical world. If we are honest, we can even face these struggles within our own hearts. The questions are hard, and they are many: How do I really know God exists and cares about me? Is the God of the Old Testament the same as the God of New Testament? How can we know for sure that the Bible is God’s actual word and can be trusted? How could all the other religions be wrong, don’t they have some truth also? What do they think about Jesus? Does the Bible and science disagree? Did God create us or did we evolve? What is God doing about all the evil and suffering in the world? These questions are daunting, but don’t be discouraged. Your Christian faith holds the key to these answers. By the end of this class, you will be empowered in your own belief and in your engagement with a skeptical world.

  • Dates: Tuesdays, March 28th—May 23rd
  • Time: 7:00-8:30pm
  • Duration: 8 weeks (Class will not be meeting on Tuesday, May 9th due to an event taking place at the Lakewood Campus)

A Study of the Book of James
