Sessions Class
Click here for information about this week's class.
"Now so it was that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking questions." Luke 2:46
Who we are
The Sessions Class is comprised of believers and followers of Jesus who seek deeper understanding and application of their faith through study, reflection, and honest open dialogue.
What we do
We draw upon traditional scripture, objective research, and contemporary scholarship. We respect, value, and seek application from the wisdom and values found in other faith traditions. And we stress social applications of Christian values to further the compassionate kingdom of God taught and exemplified in the ministry of Jesus.
We sometimes jointly read and discuss the same book, article, essay, or poem. At other times, a class member may report on something they read or researched. We may discuss the social or ethical dimensions of recent developments in the news.
We occasionally invite guest speakers, watch a video, or jointly attend a lecture at a college or university in our area. We are flexible, informal, and inclusive.
When we meet
We meet Sunday mornings, 9:15 am
Where we meet
Our room is located on the second floor, southwest (Daviess Street) side of the education wing. A marquee is outside both doors. Elevator access to the second floor is nearby.
A continental breakfast is available at 9:00 a.m. in the church gymnasium. (Food and drink can be brought up to the room.)
Why a Sunday School Class like this?
Because the faith journey never ends, and the companionship of others gives us comfort, inspiration, and encouragement.
