James, Jude, and Johannian Letters (Part 1: James)
Led by Dr. Lionel Alford
This is a class you can pick up at any time: a study of James, Jude, and the Johannian Letters through the Greek. These great pieces of Greek historical literature are primary source documents for our understanding of the early church. You don’t have to know Greek, we will look at the Greek words, text, and translation in context to the times and the people. We will see what the Greek means literally and within the context of the times and history. We will further see how it fits into our life in Christ. In part 1, we will begin with a proof of the veracity of the Greek text of James then launch into the history and the book itself.

In the Beginning...(Continued)
Led by Aaron Zimmerman
Our study of “In the Beginning” continues with our study of Exodus.

The journey through Exodus will look at the Mosaic law, the revelation of the Ten Commandments, the remembrance of the Passover, the building of the Tabernacle, and the consecration of the earliest priests. We will also study Israel’s propensity towards disobedience as a reminder of God’s grace for them… and for us today.
