Class Description:
This is the first of two classes that look at Christian doctrine. In this class, we’ll look at God, humanity, and Christ. We’ll look at who God is, what he’s like, and how we can know him. We’ll look at the world God has made and his ongoing rule over that world. We’ll also look at who we are, what we’re like, and what’s wrong with us. Finally, we’ll look at the person of Christ – the God-man who unites God and humanity.

In this ten-part class, you will explore what it means to be an authentic follower of Jesus Christ, and how to help others to grow as Christian disciples. Starting with the patterns of the first-century church as they sought to share and live out the Gospel as a Spirit-filled, word-based community, the course leads you through biblical foundations and practical steps for everyday discipleship.

5 WEEK CLASSES
October 18 - November 15
Class Description:
This course is not about how the gospel fits into the Christian family life, but how family life should fit into the gospel – God's greatest purpose for this universe, achieved in Christ. Gospel-Centered Family takes us through the major Biblical principles for family life, challenging us to give up our ‘respectable’ middle-class idols, and to become the distinctively different people that God, through his gospel, calls us to be.

Class Description:
How to Pray is written to evoke a passion for prayer in everyone-the committed follower of Jesus as well as the skeptic and the scared. The enormous blessing of How to Pray is that it is accessible, full of surprising stories of answered prayer, and tremendously engaging. The basic idea is that prayer is a conversation between you and God. Pete Greig demystifies and reenchants prayer, helping you to find prayer achievable and enjoyable, and ultimately life-giving and life-changing.
