Adult Sunday School will continue its journey through the Bible by completing I Samuel and beginning 2 Samuel.  These two pivotal books recount Israel’s transition from a tribal confederacy to a monarchy, the troubled reign of its first king, Saul, and the rise of David as Israel’s archetypal king.  2 Samuel chronicles the reign of David and culminates with the rebellion of his son Absolom.  These two books deal with important theological themes such as the proper ordering of God’s people, the covenant, how God works in history and through people, the vocation of the covenant people, and the working of God among sinful people.

The Dead Theologians Society is dedicated to reading and discussing the works of theologians who are dead!  However, while dead these theologians continue to influence the life of the Church through their rich teaching and insights.  The group is currently reading John Calvin’s Commentary on Romans.  Any interested person is welcome to join!  We work together to understand deep things and to help one another benefit from some of the Church’s greatest teachers.

Modern Christianity is too often guilty of rushing past the law to get to grace.  While the law was given, in part, to reveal God’s holy nature and sovereignty and to reveal how disastrously short men and woman fall from God’s holiness, we now tend to avoid this.  Fear of offending modern people (and ourselves), however, leads to something far worse which is offending God.  A small view of God results in a small view of grace and a small view of grace is fatal to the Chrisitan life.  We are called to seek God’s face, the very face we cannot bear to see and still live as sinners.  Our God is a “consuming fire” and only as we begin to understand this will we begin to understand the magnitude of grace.

As Christians, we are called to serve God in every aspect of our lives.  Does this include work?  Does work have a value to God or is it just a means to an end (paying the bills)?  Is “church work” the only way to serve God or is “secular work” pleasing to Him as well?  Is your job a vocation?  Does our culture view work in the right way?  You are invited to join in a discussion of these important questions and to discover what God says about work and vocation and why these are important to God’s Kingdom.  We will use Tim Keller’s Every Good Endeavor as a guide but will also draw on C. S. Lewis, Dorothy Sayers and other Christian writers.

Led by Fr. Herb Bailey & Jennifer Webster

What is the mission of the global Church and how can you become involved in it in concrete ways?  The subject of missions can seem overwhelming and daunting.  The New Wineskins Missionary Network has created Anglicans in Mission to help Anglicans feel less overwhelmed and less daunted by missions and to move on to a position of greater understanding, excitement, and engagement.  Class sessions will focus on God’s mission in the world, the spread of the Gospel, unreached people groups in the world, sending laborers into the harvest, understanding the global nature of the Church, and praying for global and local missions.  Participants will gain a new perspective on the mission of the Church and discover ways in which they can become involved in it.  Outcomes: Awareness, opportunities, and formation.
