Boomers
Meets in High School Room 201/203
Teacher: David Abernathy
The Doctrine of God
Our world is awash with wrong notions about God, and those wrong notions create great trouble for individuals, families and nations. The Bible provides a consistent, accurate and adequate knowledge of God. The Boomers will explore the Doctrine of God in our pursuit of His knowledge. David Abernathy and his wife Estelle have been members of Wycliffe Bible Translators since 1987. They’ve served in Mexico, Arizona, Kenya, Nigeria and Waxhaw. His current work at JAARS is to prepare exegetical study aids for translators in the field, comparing various English renderings with the Greek text, and combing through technical commentaries for insights into exegetical issues translators should know about.

Deo Class (Seniors + all ages)

The Apostles' Creed
“If life is a journey, then the million-word-long Holy Bible is the large scale map with everything in it, and the hundred-word Apostles’ Creed is the simplified road map… enabling you to see at a glance the main points of Christian belief,” says Dr. J.I. Packer. In our study of this great Creed, we will learn about the Father who has created us, the Son who has redeemed us, and the Holy Spirit who sanctifies us. Come and pray, sing and study together with us. Our study guide will be J.I. Packer’s Affirming the Apostles’ Creed.

Professionals)

Hebrews 11 - Heroes of the Faith
We will look at individual “heroes” and their faith, but our ultimate goal is to see how their stories are really about the faithfulness of God. He shows His unmerited favor upon His people, showing His faithfulness to take care of them despite their faithless deeds.

Second
Acts (Young Families)
Meets in the Fireplace Room
Teacher: Pastor Gabe Sylvia
Survey of the New Testament
We will use the singular New Testament history book, the Acts of the Apostles, as our guide as we consider New Testament chronologically. In our study of the historic events of the 1st century narrated by Luke, the author of Acts, we will consider each New Testament epistle and gospel as it falls in order. Studying in this way, we will be able to grasp the context from which each book was written. In addition to gaining familiarity with the basics of the New Testament, we will also develop a systematic understanding of the gospel (cf. 1 Peter 3:15).
Soli Deo Gloria (Cross-Generational)
Meets in High School Room 101/103
Teacher: Elder Brian Jerby
Reformed Theology for the Home
What do the sovereignty of God, the supremacy of Christ, and the sanctification of the Spirit have to do with childhood, single life, choosing a spouse, marriage, parenting, and even grandparenting? How can the application of reformed theology change our perspective on all of these life stages? Using fundamental principles of reformed, systematic theology, a team of Elders and RTS students will lead us in searching the Scriptures for the answers to these questions. Come ready to think and re-think biblically!
