Learning Together for Life
As we gather on Sunday for corporate worship, we also take advantage of the opportunity to continue learning with and from one another, going deeper on various topics than the normal worship service allows.
Our adult education involves a steady diet of Scripture (OT and NT), theology, church history, Christian living, and contemporary issues. We currently meet from 10:15–10:45am every Sunday morning.
June-July 2026: “Attributes of God”
Our pastors and interns will be teaching a summer study on the attributes of God. Join us in the worship center to go deeper on the character and essence of the Triune God! Download handouts/audio.
