CLASS OFFERINGS(S) & INTERNSHIPS
Counselor’s Training 1 Class (Class has moved to online Zoom meetings only)
This course focuses on some of the heart issues that need to be addressed in preparation for ministry. Preparing the heart of the minister is a foundational step taken from 2 Timothy 2:21, which says, “Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work.” Using primarily the Biblical text, we will examine Scriptural principles for developing a heart of integrity for cultivating a heart conformed to the image of Christ. Students will also be required to take a Life Enrichment class. Each student must also pay a materials fee of $25. To join this class, fill out our sign-up form.
The Book of Revelation Class (Class has moved to online livestreaming only)
Revelation is, and always has been, one of the most controversial and disputed books of the Bible. There are many different ways that people choose to interpret this very important piece of New Testament literature. The problem is that many people attempting their interpretation do not believe in prophecy themselves, and often do not understand how prophecy works. The class will explore the prophetic book of Revelation from a prophetic point of view, providing spiritual insight into what God was speaking back then, and how this applies to the church in the present day. To join this class, fill out our sign-up form.
Intro to New Testament (Class has moved to online Zoom meetings only)
Introduction to the New Testament will cover the historical context in which the New Testament was written, as well as some of the books themselves. There will be other classes on the Gospels, the letters of Paul, and Revelation; but this material will be briefly discussed in this course as well. We will also discuss the book of Acts and the non-Pauline epistles. There will also be an emphasis on the political & religious background of the New Testament times and literature. To join this class, fill out our sign-up form.

GENERAL INFO
At the conclusion of Jesus’ earthly ministry He commissioned His disciples to go forth into all the nations to disciple and teach. Today, this word rings out even more clearly over all the nations of the earth. We need disciples not believers. We need people who are sold out to the call of Jesus Christ in every aspect of their lives and who will help equip others to go do the same thing. Now is our time to have the greatest impact on the world as His followers! This class should be taken with the intent to grow deeper in your relationship with the Lord and activate His principles in our everyday lives. Jesus Christ is not just concerned about what we do, He is concerned about who we are. To join this class, fill out our sign-up form.

The kids that your child will spend their time with in these classes can become the group they will grow up with. Not only that but the opportunity to learn, think and experience God’s goodness in these classes where dialogue is a staple and questions are encouraged, make them really exceptional.

GENERAL INFO
Come join us on Thursday, Sept 16, 2021 for An Evening with Michael W. Smith. Michael W. Smith continues to live out his dream; releasing new music regularly and performing around the world to sell-out crowds of loyal and inspired fans. Michael has been honored with three Grammy Awards, 45 Dove Awards, an American Music Award and has sold more than 15 million albums.
“I feel God moving through His Church and He is calling us together to be one voice and one heart. One bride. Every nation, every tribe and every tongue. Every social class, every denomination. What if we bring Him the thing that pleases Him most– our unity,” implores Michael. “We may each have different stories, and skin, and songs, but we all share His same Spirit. For me, though, music is always my first creative outlet,” he clarifies. “Forever, until the world ends, music is the most powerful language there is.”
