ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL

It is a time in which those who desire to cultivate a consistent walk with God can study the Word of God and enjoy the fellowship of others who have the same commitment. Our eventual goal is to offer electives in many different areas of the Word of God as well as classes aimed at different needs of the family of God. Join us so we can get to know you better.

SMALL GROUP MINISTRY - FLOCKS GROUPS
A FLOCKS Group may be defined as a small "family" gathering where
the participants meet together regularly to build up and encourage one another
in Christ. Together they study the Word of God and apply its teaching to their
lives. They experience the ministry of the Holy Spirit as they love and care
for one another.
There are six goals that are foundational to achieving our objectives and thus
fulfilling our over all purpose of glorifying God by being and making Disciples:
Followership - By the very definition of following, we are called into a deepening
intimacy with Christ our leader.
Leadership - Kenneth Gangel defines leadership
as “the exercise of one's spiritual gifts under the call of God to serve a certain
group of people in
achieving
the goals God has given them in order to glorify Christ.”
Outreach - A group can quickly become introspective. It needs to keep an outward
focus. Outreach can be in the form of reaching out to the unbelieving world
or reaching
out to believers.
Caring - God did not intend for Christians to stand alone. He created the church
as a caring community to bear each other's burdens, confess faults, teach and
admonish each other, forgive and comfort each other.
Knowledge -
Knowledge is necessary for spiritual growth. Early Christians were most often
stimulated to spiritual growth through house meetings, where believers instructed
each other. (Acts 20:20)
Supplication -
Prayer is an essential feature of any small group. Why? Two reasons. First,
prayer is one-half of our communication with God (the other half is reading
the Word.) Secondly, you will search scripture in vain to find anyone who was
effective for the Lord and did not have a prayer life.
