Visceral Sin

Zach Sewell

Some sins are more deeply embedded in our behavior than others, and such visceral sins are difficult to cut out of our lives. Like other visceral problems we face, we often don’t know how to deal with visceral sin. Join us in a conversation about defining and confronting our own visceral sin and gently helping others address theirs as well.

Big God in a Small Church, Part 2

Bryan Schackmann

The majority of churches around the world are what we would consider small. What does it look like to seek God in this context? How could we focus on God's unique calling for a smaller body of believers? Join us as we hear from ministers, elders, and others who have seen God's big work in a smaller context.

Spiritual Breakthrough, Part 1

Buddy Bell

Most of us stay frustrated by lack of spiritual growth. Even if we are growing, we find it frustrating to foster that growth in others. In this class you will be introduced to some simple spiritual tools called Lifeshapes. They will not only spur your own spiritual growth, but will give your church a common language to spur that same spiritual growth in others, especially in discipleship groups.

"The Perspective of a Parent and Pastor of a Same-Sex Attracted Son"

Breaking Busy

Phil Brookman

Busyness knows how to breed. And just like the weeds in our gardens, the multiplication rate is pretty alarming. Borrowing a title from Alli Worthington’s 2016 book, we will explore the roots beneath busyness, and the practical ways for Christians today to loosen its grip in the soil of our hearts by using the power of no and the practice of Sabbath.

May I? Reflections on Practicing Consent

Jeremiah Gibson

Our faith tradition's challenges with effectively discussing sexuality have contributed to numerous types of sexual conflict. Gain an understanding of consent that extends into providing couples with a process for improving their quality of communication and intimacy, and learn ways that we can improve our relationships by actively practice consent in sexual and nonsexual contexts.

A Murder in Music City

Michael Bishop

In 1997 Michael Bishop discovered a hidden file about a legendary 1964 murder in Nashville, Tennessee. With the help of an investigator, he revealed the involvement of a group of powerful citizens in the murder and the framing of an innocent man. Hear the inspirational journey and difficult choices faced by a Christian and private citizen of whom the Washington Post wrote this way: “Determined to right a wrong that everyone else had looked away from, Michael Bishop became a one-man innocence commission.”

Dancin' Shoes

Sara Jackson, Emily Lemley

"Stepping Wholeheartedly into Your Future"

God is always ahead of his people, and yet so often we cannot see his purpose until we look back. We will examine ways to renew our faith and walk in hope, even when it feels like God has forgotten us. King David, who danced and wept before the Lord, points the way.
