Looking for ways to deepen your understanding of the Christian faith?

The Adult Christian Education Program at SPC promotes the basic faith formation of each member of our congregation, helps individual members to mature in their personal faith and seeks to equip our members for the development and nurturing of other Christians, as directed by the Holy Spirit. It is our prayer that you will join us for one of our Sunday morning or weekday adult classes for fellowship and continued growth in your knowledge of God's word.

Truth Seekers
Jesus' questions challenged listeners to become learners by forcing them to think. His questions ignored the superficial, stirred the conscience and permitted no rest until the issues had answers. Each question is still relevant in our day. The answers He provided are still true. Come join the Truth Seeker Class as we discuss "Issues and Answers in Jesus' Day" at 9:30 in room CE 4.

The Gospel of Matthew
If you go to any bookstore, advice about how to live your life will practically scream out at you from every shelf. According to the evangelist Matthew, however, God singled out Jesus and said, "Listen to him!" (Matt 17:5). Pastor Steve Matthies facilitates this study each Sunday at 11:00 a.m. in the dining room as we listen to our Lord, asking God to form our lives in accordance with his example and instruction.

Discovery Class
Please join us as we continue the study of Romans. You can count on a lively discussion as we explore the similarity of the problems of the Roman church and our present day church. Come and see how it may be a solution for the reforms needed in our denomination.
Led by several veteran teachers, this class meets each Sunday morning at 11:00 in the choir room (M-3). Contact Jeanne Hollingsworth at 885-8303
