Current Classes
Old Testament Foundations
Continues Jan. 5 | Grades 7-8th
When we start talking about the big story of the Bible, there’s no better place to start than at the beginning! The book of Genesis introduces us to several of the main characters, events, and themes of the story that God will unfold throughout the rest of the Bible. It truly is the bedrock of the narrative of God and his creation. Without it, much of the Bible does not make sense. The rest of the Bible will build on the concepts laid out for us in Genesis, and, in many ways, the history of God’s people will mirror the movements of the book of Genesis. From sin to sacrifice, from brokenness to restoration, from judgment to salvation: Genesis is a microcosm of what God has been doing since just after the creation of the universe.
General Epistles
Begins Jan. 5 | Grades 9-10th
This semester, our youth will delve into some of the General Epistles, focusing on letters written by early Christian leaders such as James, Peter, John, and Jude. These letters address key aspects of Christian faith and practice, offering wisdom on topics like perseverance in trials, living out holiness, the power of love, and guarding against false teachings. Throughout the course, we will explore the rich theological insights and practical guidance these letters provide for believers seeking to grow in their relationship with God and one another. By examining the historical background, literary style, and key themes of each epistle, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how these writings speak to the challenges and joys of Christian life in any era. Through study, discussion, and personal reflection, our youth will be encouraged to apply these timeless truths to their daily walk with Christ.
Pauline Epistles
Continues Jan. 5 | Grades 11-12th
Paul’s letters to the church are just as relevant today as they were when they were written. Our students not only face modernized religious persecution, but they also face the temptation to follow false teaching. Whether it be self-help books, a philosophy class, or a half-true Christianity that tells them they have to earn God’s approval through good behavior, they are bombarded with teaching that is contrary to the gospel of grace. Paul encourages believers to grow in maturity in the Christian faith. Students today need similar encouragement as to how they can remain steadfast in their daily walk with the Lord.
