foundations of the bible


The Bible is a book unlike any other; God’s message for humanity recorded by a variety of authors over thousands of years.

Knowing how to read the Bible well-is foundational for our discipleship, and this class seeks to equip you for that task in a practical, hands-on way.
We will discuss important concepts of hermeneutics, such as translation, word studies, historical context, and literary genre, as well as understanding the overarching narrative of redemption that the Bible presents.
Our hope is that you would be able to read the Bible with confidence, and help others to do the same.

the life of moses

what must I do to hear a "well  done"?


In spite of the fact that the Bible commands us to be motivated by eternal rewards, most people haven’t given any thought about this important subject. They have been taught that the only important thing to live for is heaven.
 But the Bible goes way beyond the free gift of heaven -to rewards that are given or lost depending on how we live our life now.  
Come and take part in the class and discussion about passages that teach this important truth. Learn how the Holy Spirit is the key to living a life honoring to King Jesus.

faith alone for salvation


Our church champions the truth that faith alone is all that we need to be saved.
What does the Bible teach about it? What happens in your personal life and church if this truth were abandoned? Why are so many churches walking away from this vital truth? In this class we will we learn four things:
 
1. How the Early church and the Reformation developed Justification by faith alone.
2. What the BIble says about Justification by Faith Alone.
3. Four contemporary challenges to the Justification by Faith Alone.
4. What happens when we abandon this vital doctrine in our churches and our personal lives.
