Adults
Adult classes and studies are a time our community sets aside in order to plunge deeper into the “what” and “how” of living in God’s Kingdom. Taking time to submit ourselves in study under God’s Word is part of how the Spirit transforms us more in Jesus’ image by seeking the renewal of our minds.
Because we desire to study God’s Word as disciples of Jesus, not as disinterested religious students, our goal is that we would not simply walk away having acquired more information about God, but rather walk away having our hearts pierced by God’s gracious Word (Hebrews 4:12) with a greater vision for following Jesus in his Kingdom.
Sundays
Fall A1 | August 18–October 20
In keeping with our mission to make disciples who make disciples, St. Andrew’s Church offers a robust adult Sunday school curriculum comprising three tracks: Core, Electives and Bible.
Each semester will be broken into two 8-10 weeks quarters and with three classes per quarter, which gives six different class opportunities each semester.
This class offers an overview of our community’s history, organization and introduction to discipleship in this congregation. It functions as both an orientation for the curious and as our adult confirmation class. It is the doorway to church membership and a prerequisite to all other core classes.
This class is practicum where attendees work in groups to learn, practice and make a habit of daily Bible study aiming for routines that will stick, as well as solid and applicable hermeneutics. This will include understanding the Bible’s reliability, the metanarrative and key topics such as genre and perspective. The main goal is to establish a habit of reading Scripture well.
This course will guide students through a study of the book of Job, including its key themes, literary features, historical background, and theology. It will explore questions like: What does Job tell us about what God is like? Why is the book written as poetry? Who are Job’s friends? Where does the book fit into God’s plan of redemption? How does this change the way I suffer? We hope you will join us as we learn together and meditate on this profound book of the Bible.
Mid-Week
Gifted teachers bring to life the beauty of God’s word in an environment where relationships are built and people are able to interact in a conversational and relaxed setting. As we engage with God and his word in community with one another, we invite the Holy Spirit to come and renew our minds, reorder our priorities and reshape our habits around the person and work if Jesus Christ.
