Adult Sunday School Classes

All of the adult classes will be studying the same book this year as part of our church-wide experience of The Story.  

The Story reveals the unfolding, grand narrative of the Scriptures. Condensed into thirty-one accessible chapters, The Story sweeps you into the unfolding progression of Bible characters and events arranged chronologically from Genesis to Revelation – allowing the stories, poems, and teachings of the Bible to read like a novel.

We invite you to share with us by coming to worship, reading the book and joining a Sunday school class!
