"The Theology Program" - Humanity and Sin

Taught by Jerry Berry - Downstairs - Room 130

This course is a study of the nature of humanity and sin. We will look at the nature of humanity from a biblical perspective by examining the pre-fall and post-fall state of man. We will see how these issues were dealt with from a historical perspective by spending much time on the debate between St. Augustine and Pelagius. Attempt will be made to understand the implications of man being created in the image of God. Debates about the origin and nature of sin will be examined by asking questions such as: What is sin? Where did it begin? Why did God allow it? Are there different types of sin?

Lecture/Workbook/Cost: $15 for workbook

People don't set out to build their faith on myths. But somehow falsehoods keep showing up in the way many Christians think about life and God. These beliefs are assumed by millions to be rock-solid truth ... until life proves they're not. The sad result is often a spiritual disaster - confusion, feelings of betrayal, distrust of Scripture, and loss of faith or anger toward both God and the church. But it doesn't have to be so. In this study we will confront ten widely held beliefs that are both dumb and dangerous. Beliefs like these: Faith can fix everything. God brings good luck. Forgiving means forgetting. Everything happens for a reason. A godly home guarantees good kids ... and more. Get ready to be shocked, relieved and inspired in the pages of Ten Dumb Things Smart Christians Believe ... Because myths can get you hurt.

"Revival Through Prayer" - Old Fashioned Wednesday Evening Prayer Service - Based on II Chronicles 7:14

Led by Jerry Dunn - Downstairs - Room 136

II Chronicles 7:14, "If My people which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Intercessory prayer is a prayer for others. An intercessor is one who takes the place of another and pleads another's case. It can be defined as "holy, believing, persevering prayer whereby someone pleads with God on behalf of another or others who desperately need God's intervention." This class will be a time of earnest prayer for God's hand to be on our nation, church, family and friends who are unsaved.

Taught by Bob Mason - Downstairs - Room 131

No biblical subject brings out the imagination in people more than "Prophecy". Some people look into the prophetic books and always seem to find things that are sensational. Often their conjectures cannot be supported - neither by content or by context. These lessons will cover end-time events that we know will take place. No amount of effort can stop the clock of history. No mortal - no matter how influential, wealthy or well know - can break the passage of time. Every day that passes, every tick of the clock, brings us closer to the dramatic events predicted in the Bible. We can prepare for the inevitable, we can put time to good use, but we cannot stop it, not ever for a moment. Christ, who loved us and gave Himself for us, IS coming - it may be today! Life is now more exhilarating now. Each day is an understanding now. Each day is an understanding of how God's program for the future has turned our life around.
