Overcoming a Low View of God

MEETS AT 10:45 A.M. IN COOPER ROOM 104

Have you unconsciously adopted a low view of God? A.W. Tozer wrote, “The Church has surrendered her once lofty concept of God and has substituted for it one so low, so ignoble as to be utterly unworthy of God’s worshiping believers.” And yet, Jesus commands us to love God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength. In this class, we want to know: Is it possible to love God as we should without knowing His glory, majesty and above all His holiness? By engaging with Scripture and A.W. Tozer’s book, “The Knowledge of the Holy,” we’ll explore these questions together. Taught by Glenn Angermeier.

Exploring the Scriptures

Exploring and Answering Tough Questions

MEETS AT 10:45 A.M. IN COOPER LECTURE HALL

One of the unique aspects of Christianity is that it stands up to honest intellectual scrutiny. Because of this, we can have confidence in bringing our own questions and answering the questions of others. We’ll explore some of the toughest questions asked by our culture by engaging deeply with Scripture. The format means you can come to class even if you’ve been away on vacation without feeling lost, so join any week you’re in town! Taught by Bill Fullilove, Hugh Whelchel, and others

Berean Servants

Miracles

MEETS AT 10:45 A.M. IN COOPER ROOM 122

Who couldn’t use a miracle? How many times do we wish that some physical condition, a relationship problem, or an urgent financial crisis could be quickly resolved with just one little miracle? As we open the Gospels, we find story after story of Christ demonstrating God’s power through miracles. But these were no mere parlor tricks. They had a redemptive purpose and point us to God’s grace. What can we learn from these events? And how do we experience God’s power in the struggles we face everyday? Join us as we find the answers to these questions in a study of Christ’s miracle-working ministry. Taught by John Carter
