Anyone is welcome at any
time to join a class in progress. |
On behalf of all the teachers and leaders of adult ministries I am privilege to invite you to join one of the groups or classes meeting during “Connections” time each Sunday! Everyone involved in Adult Ministries works hard to design learning opportunities for adults that are instructive, practical, intellectually challenging, encouraging, foster the building of relationships and stimulate Christians to practice their faith day to day. May the Lord Jesus bless you with knowledge of God the Father by the power of the Holy Spirit as you step into learning with other believers at St. Andrews.

The
Family of God
Currently our class is studying Phillip
Yancey’s Prayer – Does it Make a Difference? Yancey explores this enigmatic
intersection where we meet God, addressing key questions that everyone has at
some point in their faith walk. Books are available for $15.00 through the
Olafsons 544-4162 or
jolafson@standrewspres.com. Consider learning together with them and sharing
your insights.
Taking Your Faith to Work (Women
Only)
God created humans to make God’s world work and
to care for His world. How do professional women working outside of the home
fulfill this creation mandate? Come and explore with other women challenges of
being a faithful witness in their work.
Faithfully
Interpreting Scripture
Led by Jason Caywood (3/9-5/18), in the Chapel (NE campus). Have you ever
been confused about the meaning of Scripture? Do you have difficulty making
sense of the Bible? Interpreting the Bible is not merely the task of experts
nor did God intend for us to not understand it. Come join us as we learn
about the basic tools and strategies for studying and gleaning an accurate
understanding of God’s Word written and live faithfully according to God’s
will.
Exploring Christian Spirituality
What is “spirituality”? What does living
out Christian spirituality mean? We will be discussing these questions
and more by listening to a DVD presentation entitled, “Everything is
Spiritual,” by Rob Bell. Pastor Jennifer Wilcox will be leading the
conversation about this essential question of life and how to
practically live out the Gospel. All are invited to join us.
Lessons
from Church History (revised and expanded)
History
has profoundly shaped our understanding of Christianity and the
practices of Christian people over time. Each week we will explore a
different topic and leading figures in Christian history to discover how
they changed the world, have shaped
our understanding of Christian faith and what we can glean from
them in order to navigate through the difficult issues facing believers
today.
The
Message of Scripture in Context
It is important for us to understand the
historical and cultural background of the Bible in order to accurately
hear its message. We will be learning from Ray Vander Laan through the
That the World May Know
series—looking at the Old Testament period of the prophets and Kings and
the Life and Ministry of the Lord Jesus. Each week covers a separate
topic.
Believing, Belonging, Becoming
This class is in preparation for becoming a member
of St. Andrew's. You will learn know more about who we are,
what we do at St. Andrews or about what it means to be a member.
To sign up please call the church office (297-7201) or leave a message on
Membership voice mailbox (382-2129)
