B216

Zechariah – Eric Cantrell You’ve come out of a difficult time and now you are faced with a significant challenge. This is what God’s people, the Israelites, were looking at when they returned home from captivity in Babylon and were given the task of rebuilding the temple in Jerusalem. Zechariah encourages the Israelites to build the temple by giving them a vision of the coming Messiah and His good rule. Today we are the living stones in a temple—not built with hands. As we work to continue to build and grow God’s temple—the church, we are faced with challenges and need to be encouraged by Zechariah’s vision of the coming Christ.

B220/221

Matthew 5-9: The Good King’s Good Kingdom– Andy Boyer & John Bruner Jesus Christ is the Good King promised in the Old Testament. Was He the king that Matthew’s readers expected? What did He say about His kingdom? How did He carry out His kingly rule? We will look at Jesus’ teaching, Jesus’ ministry, and Jesus’ leadership of His followers to answer these questions. We will get to know the King better and grow in our understanding of what it means to experience His good rule in our lives and the world around us.

B224/225

Discipling: Job #1 – Dave Bruner, Harry Carter & Mike Weeks In the great commission, Jesus gives His followers one command—“Make disciples.” It is Job #1 for the local church and it must be the focus of every believer’s life. The wonderful thing is that Jesus not only gives us the command to make disciples, but He also promises to be with us and give us the plan and the tools. We are not alone. This class will look at how the church makes disciples with the involvement of every member in the process. Learn about what discipling is, how a disciple-making church helps you grow, and how Jesus commissioned you to be a part of it.

B214/215

Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University – Bob Nuttall & George Williams Financial Peace University (FPU) teaches God's ways of handling money. Through video teaching, class discussions, and interactive small group activities, FPU presents biblical, practical steps to get rid of debt, manage your money, spend, and save wisely and much more!
