Life can be fast, hectic, and sometimes overwhelming. In such environments, it is absolutely essential to intentionally nurture your soul for the good of your home. To this end, plan on meeting up with the Family Connection class to strengthen the core of your life, marriage, and family. We will explore the rock-solid resources in God’s Word together while sharing with each other in community. Here, we will look at the Scripture to process how living out the Gospel impacts the quality of our daily lives. Come gather with others and learn how to develop healthy God-centered rhythms so that we can live the way Christ intends. Visit this class. Make it your weekly habit. You will be glad you did.
Family Foundations is comprised largely of married couples with children of all ages. The group strives to build a faith-based foundation for developing and strengthening our families and church family bonds by studying God’s Word in a sharing and participatory environment.
Learn to study the Bible, using the principles of Observation (What do I see?), Interpretation (What does it mean?), and Application (What am I to do, and how does it work?). Expect great interaction and discussion, participation in some fun exercises, and hear practical teaching from studies constructed in this manner.
All professionals think, express, and desire different outcomes from one another. An attorney thinks differently from an accountant who uses a different vocabulary than a preacher or a medical doctor. Luke, identified by Paul as the “beloved physician,” is no different.
Often Luke uses medical terms to reveal Jesus to us. To borrow from C.S. Lewis, either Jesus is a lunatic, a liar, or He is Lord, the Promised One of God as the Perfect Man and the Perfect Savior, through whom salvation is available to both Jew and Gentile alike.
Although we are studying it verse by verse, each lesson is a “stand-alone” lesson that does not require previous attendance.

Psalms From The Top Down
Romans: The Gospel of God and How to Live in Christ
S.A.L.T. (Single Adults Living in Truth 40 and above)
The Book of Revelation
Baker Smith and Huck Whitener
Room 234 In-Person or Online The mercy of God, His withholding of the punishment we deserve, is the theme of Jonah and Hosea. Jesus repeatedly quoted Hosea: “I desire mercy, not sacrifice,” adding that He “came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” As an expression of repentance, Jonah is traditionally read on the Jewish Day of Atonement, including Jonah’s words, “Salvation belongs to the Lord!” Historically, the Day of Atonement culminated in a sacrifice at the temple in Jerusalem followed by the high priest’s statement, “It is finished!” Jesus prophesied His sacrificial death and resurrection saying, “Just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” Jesus also stated that the Gentiles to whom Jonah had preached and who had repented, the people of Nineveh, would join the other righteous believers, both Jews and Gentiles, who “rise at the judgment.” Please join us for this exciting study as you strengthen your confidence and assurance of victory in Christ.

Room 244 In-Person or Online Our biggest challenge as men is understanding who we are and our purpose. When we begin to understand that our identity and purpose are directly tied to God, we are free to be who He has designed us to be. King David was “a man after God’s own heart,” yet he was incredibly flawed just like us. In his journey with the Lord, David knew exactly who he was and his purpose. David gave his heart to God, and God in turn made him the greatest king of Israel and the head of the family line of the Messiah, Jesus.
Join us as we study the life of David and how God can use us as He did David, despite our flaws, to find our purpose and identity in Him. We will be using David: A Man of Passion and Destiny by Chuck Swindoll as a resource and guide. Come join us as we take biblical principles and implement them into our daily lives.
In this class, we will look at the Father’s character and His ways as revealed through the Psalms.
We will study the Book of Romans together with a focus on the Gospel of God and what it means to live in Christ in our everyday lives

In-Person or Online Whether you’re new to Apostles or just looking to connect with our Singles community, this gathering is for you. Join with other mid-singles, ages 40 and above, to build friendships and grow in grace. As a single adult, it can be hard to both find and build meaningful community within the church. Each week we seek to build up our community of singles as we look at key passages in the Bible to help us practically live out our faith together. Additionally, we have round table interaction along with practical biblical teaching to help everyone understand how to live out the gospel in our work, family, and friendships.
To many people, the book of Revelation is mysterious and confusing. Join us for an in-depth study of the book of Revelation. We will begin with the background of the book followed by an interactive verse-by-verse study. Much is revealed about Christ in the book of Revelation. We will examine topics like Christ’s message to the Seven Churches of Asia, The Judgment, Tribulation, Second Coming, the Millennium, and the Eternal State. In studying Revelation, we desire not only to increase our understanding of who Christ is but learn to increase our hope in Him.

Here, he writes the second letter to the Church of Corinth, which is where we will continue this semester.
Join us as we discover the truths Paul writes to the Church at Corinth relevant to both the first Century and for all who have followed. In addition to the truths and related applications, we will see the vulnerability of Paul as he shares transparently with the believers and friends in Corinth!

The Gospel of Luke gives us a beautiful portrait of our compassionate Savior, Jesus Christ. The book covers the life of Jesus and all He began to do and to teach until the day he was taken up to heaven. Luke’s portrayal of Jesus reveals the love and mercy of Christ to all people – no matter their station in life. Join us as we explore key insights that can be shared with everyone we encounter.
