SUNDAY FAITH & CULTURE CLASS

The Faith and Culture Class seeks God at the intersection of our faith and the issues of everyday living. Its discussion format allows an honest and meaningful grappling with theology and modern society. Through studies of challenging and spirit-uplifting books and other media, we expand our knowledge and understanding of God and ask the question: How does our life impact our faith and vice versa? We support and encourage one another in works of service. Our view of God expands with every conversation. Call the church office for contact information, 865-983-0182.
