Adult Discipleship Class -- On The Shoulders of Giants
Our Adult Discipleship class topic of study is, On The Shoulders of Giants. In the coming months, we will take a journey through Christian history. This journey will see how God has worked and how the Church has both succeeded and struggled in its attempt to declare Christ to the world. This class will be historically educational, interesting and applicable as we learn from the victories and mistakes of our Christian forefathers. Led by Pastor Nick, you will definitely learn something new and grow in your faith.
