The purpose of this class is “that you may become mature Christians and may fulfill GOD’S will for you”. (Colossians 4:12) "We are not meant to remain as children ... but to grow up in every way into Christ" (Ephesians 4:14-15)
The focus of the class:
We will focus, in great detail with supporting scripture, on the Four Basic Habits every Christian needs to develop in order to grow to spiritual maturity:
•       Time with GOD’S Word.
•       The habit of Praying.
•       The habit of Tithing.
•       The habit of Fellowship.
Whether a new or current member, this class will equip you with the skills you need to begin these habits and explain the tools you need to continue these habits. After all, developing these habits is not automatic, it is a process that takes discipline.

UNSHAKEN: FAITH OVER FEAR AS HIS KINGDOM COMES
Facilitator: Rev. Markel Graham
Every Wednesday
Class Time: 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Class Dates: 9/3/2025 - Ongoing
IN-PERSON ONLY
(Note: This class will not meet 11/26/2025)

In a world filled with uncertainty and swirling chaos, God calls His people to stand firm, unshaken, as His Kingdom unfolds before our eyes. Headlines scream of wars, natural disasters, and moral confusion, but for the believer, these signs do not signal fear—they point to the nearness of the Kingdom. This class will guide believers to replace fear with unshakable faith, rooting their lives in Kingdom priorities rather than the shifting sands of culture. As the world groans with labor pains, we are not to retreat in anxiety but to prepare our hearts with bold expectation, knowing that Christ’s return is drawing closer. The more chaos, signs, and wonders we see, the closer the Kingdom is, and God is calling His people to live watchful, purposeful, and hope-filled lives. Together, we will learn to stand firm in faith, live with Kingdom focus, and be ready to welcome the King when He comes!

Second Corinthians is a letter written by the Apostle Paul to the church in Corinth. It addresses themes of reconciliation, the nature of Christian ministry, and the challenges Paul faced as an apostle. Some of the Corinthian Christians questioned Paul’s authenticity as an apostle. Paul defends his authority, explains the hardships he endures for the gospel, and emphasizes the power of God’s grace in human weakness. He also encourages generosity in giving and stresses the importance of living a life that reflects genuine faith. The letter combines personal reflection with theological insights, aiming to strengthen the believers’ faith and unity of believers.

BOOK: Unshakable Hope: Building Our Lives on the Promises of God by Max Lucado
Current topic: Unshakable Hope: Building Our Lives on the Promises
We will examine how genuine hope is more than just a feeling but a strong presupposition of greater things to come, grounded in the promises of God. Together, we will explore the meaning of biblical hope, its difference from worldly hope and emphasize the principles of God's promises. The class is also designed to help us build an unshakable foundation of hope by reflecting on God's word and embracing His promises, such as His presence, power, love, and faithfulness. Furthermore, the class participants will discuss challenges to hope such as doubt, disappointment, and an unknown future, providing a road map and encouragement to overcome these difficulties through faith in God's character and the truth of his promises. Finally, we will encourage participants to develop lasting hope by relying on the everlasting promises of God, which empower them to live a life of faith and confidence with a belief in the everlasting anchor in the Lord.

UNDERSTANDING THE 40 PARABLES OF JESUS CHRIST
Meeting Day & Time: Every Sunday @ 8:30 AM - 9:15 AM
HYBRID - IN PERSON Room 115 &VIRTUAL
Facilitator:  Kevin Beard
Adult Co-ed Class
VIRTUAL LINK - Understanding The 40 Parables

Understanding the 40 Parables of Jesus Christ takes the approach of understanding Jesus's parables by examining the genre, spiritual context, and historical culture. The goal of this approach is to “reveal” theology from the Bible as opposed to trying to find verses to support a belief. This is the difference between letting the Bible tell us what is true, versus someone trying to find evidence for what they want to believe. When we allow the Bible to teach us what to believe, we can better set aside our own biases and become more receptive to God's truth.

JESUS' SERMON ON THE MOUNT
Topic: God's Call to Choose our Kingdom
Meeting Day & Time:  Every Sunday @ 8:00 am - 9:00 am
Room 116
Adult Co-ed Class
Facilitators: Kingsley Sackey & Rev. Dr. Rose Ngonde
VIRTUAL LINK - Jesus' Sermon On The Mount

“The Sermon on the Mount”, as it is commonly referred to, is most likely a summary of an entire sermon taught and preached by Jesus on this theme: The Righteousness that is the Standard of His Kingdom. It is the first of five major discourses or subject areas taught and preached by Jesus and presented in the words of Christ by His disciple Matthew in the Gospel of Matthew.  During our study of “The Sermon on the Mount”, we will be introduced to the broad purposes of Matthew’s Gospel, the other four subject area presented in the Gospel, the degree of response and success of the beginning of Jesus’ ministry as He went about proclaiming the message of the kingdom and authenticated His claims by healing people. However, our focus will be to study and understand the Character of those in the Kingdom including the Beatitudes, what it means for believers to be salt and light of the earth, and several other subtopics under this theme. We will certainly learn about why there is so much stress on kingdom, and so much emphasis on righteousness.  Join us in our study as we discover what The Sermon on the Mount is and what its purpose is for believers.
