Psalm 23

Taught by Pastor Chris Shelly and Jeff Kingsley

Room 303


From Jesus’ point of view, there are two fundamentally different ways of doing life. One way, you’re connected to a God who’s involved in your life. Psalm 23 is all about this: “The LORD is my shepherd . . . and his goodness and mercy surely follow me all the days of my life.” The other way, you’re pretty much on your own and disconnected. Let’s call this the Anti-Psalm 23: “I’m on my own . . . and disappointment follows me all the days of my life.” This class explores both the Psalm and the Anti-Psalm and helps us to reflect on the question: Do you hear the voice of the Good Shepherd?

 

The Lives and Times of Jesus and the Twelve Based on Scripture, Neither Tradition Nor Legend

Taught by Bob Frick and Ron St. Clair

James

Taught by Larry Truax and Greg Miller

Room 410


In studying James, we come to a perspective on how to handle tests in life and how to regard the trials of life. Gaining assurance and evidence of maturing faith in the School of Hard Knocks has never gone unnoticed.  Even William Penn was said to observe: "No pain, no balm. No thorn, no throne. No gall, no glory. No cross, no crown.”
