worship service
“Journeying through John”. The writer of the gospel is identified in the book as, “the disciple whom Jesus loved”. John was a Jew who had been eyewitness to the events of Christ’s life. The Gospel of John is the most theological book of the Four Gospels. It deals with the nature and person of Christ and the meaning of faith in Him. If you desire to have an encounter with Jesus unlike no other then you don’t want to miss this.
Worship Services Classes for Children
GOSPEL PROJECT
Stacey Knepper and Megan Winters 1st-6th grade
The Gospel Project take kids on a Christ-centered, chronological journey through Scripture. Kids will discover how the gospel unfolds from Genesis through Revelation. When kids truly experience the gospel, their hearts are transformed. It is the gospel, not good behavior, that changes everything. We have classes for 1st-3rd grade and 4th-6th grade children, these children begin in the sanctuary and then are dismissed to class after worship before the sermon.
PRESCHOOL
Shelvy Corbin
The children do a variety of things from play, to praying, to snack, and Bible time. This is for children 2 years old to 5 years old. Parents should plan to drop off their children to this room before church begins.
NURSERY
Patty Enders
Our Nursery is available during our Sunday morning service for children birth to age 23 months, parents sign their child in at the beginning of the service. The nursery is a fun place for baby’s and toddlers to play during the service!
Sunday School Classes
GENESIS
Pastor Jeff Knepper
Adult Class
Sunday school hour is a great hour filled with a lot of interaction as we study the Word of God together. Currently we are studying the book of Genesis. Genesis means “Beginnings”. It’s so important that we have our beginnings correct. If we fail at the foundational level, then the rest of our structure is not sure. As we study Genesis we will learn about the Creation of the world, The sin of man, The beginnings of civilization, The history of Noah, The descendants of Noah and the Tower of babel, The history of Abraham, The descendants of Ishmael, The history of Isaac and his sons, and the history of Joseph. Come and be a part of some exciting studies that have set the stage for the rest of Biblical history.
UNSHAKABLE HOPE
Matt Barnett
Adult Class
Matt Barnett facilitates the down stairs Sunday School dealing with life and relationships. This world has a tremble to it. There are things that seem unsteady in this life. But when we belong to God, it allows us to filter our problems through the promises of God. When we choose to be people of the promise, we choose to build our lives on promises of God, not the circumstances of life. The stories of men and women in scripture were different, but the theme was the same: they were People of the Promise. Because of God's Promise, Noah built an ark on dry land, Joshua claimed the Promised Land, David became king, Peter preached the first sermon, and John caught a glimpse of the future. like them we can also build our lives on God's promises, and trust him to keep them.
GOSPEL FOUNDATIONS
Pastor Matt Winters
7th-12th Grade
From the creators of The Gospel Project, this six-volume study leads students on a journey through the Bible in just one year. Each volume contains seven sessions and is video-enhanced to help your group engage in discussion with a clear understanding of how each text fits into the storyline of Scripture.
EXPLORE THE BIBLE
Nicole Erwin 1st-6th grade
Our dedicated set of volunteers want to help your kids dig deep into God's Word! Using a book-by-book format, every session brings the Bible to life through rich study and engaging Bible objects, equips kids with foundational Bible knowledge and skills, and encourages them to live what they learn everywhere they go. There are 2 separate classes going through this study that take place, one is for 1st-3rd grade and the other is 4th-6th grade children.
WEDNESDAY EVENING CLASSES
ADULT BIBLE STUDY
Our midweek service is a great time for those who desire to get together and want to grow in the grace and knowledge of our LORD. We are currently studying 1 Kings. Originally 1 Book, 1st and 2nd Kings are appropriately titled from their subject matter, which traces the history of the kings of Israel and Judah from Solomon to the Babylonian captivity. First Kings concludes abruptly with the beginning of the reign of Ahaziah in 853 BC. The purpose of the book was not only to record the history of these kings, but to show that the success of any king (and of the nation as a whole) depended on the measure of his allegiance to God’s law. Failure resulted in decline and captivity.
