Adult Education

The Adult Christian Education Program offers a variety of opportunities: Sunday School classes address everything from books of the Bible to contemporary issues; Bible study, held two mornings a week, focuses on the lectionary readings; and multi-week daytime and evening programs, scheduled at designated times throughout the year, offer stimulating classes geared to specific topics. Sunday School speakers may be members of the congregation, experts from the community and region or noted biblical scholars in recorded lectures. Discussion is typically a part of each session.

A new "seeker" Bible Study opportunity has begun at Longstreets Restaurant (on the corner of            N.
