11:00AM Classes - First Redeemer Church

Ron Jones Class

God doesn't just want us to read His Word, He wants us to know it and live its truth. That's why Explore the Bible: Adults takes groups book by book through Scripture, framing every passage in its appropriate biblical and cultural context. Big stories often grow from small beginnings. That’s certainly the story of the early church. From their roots in Jerusalem, first-century believers took the Great Commission seriously. As Acts 13-28 reveals, leaders like the apostle Paul and his missionary partners took the gospel to places it had not reached and shared the light of Jesus with people living in darkness. Their story is our story. Their message is our message. As we study the missionary movement of the early church, we’re reminded of our own call to share the gospel and fulfill the Great Commission.

Holthaus Class

This group is currently doing a study of Hebrews by Jen Wilkin. Through stories of Old Testament heroes and practices, the author of Hebrews demonstrates how the new covenant is superior to the old and how Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of every promise. Explore familiar verses in context of the entire Bible, learning how to place your hope and faith in Christ alone. Teaching style is teacher led with class interaction.

Lyons Class

God doesn't just want us to read His Word, He wants us to know it and live its truth. We are studying the Gospel of Mark which is filled with timeless insights about who Christ was and why He came. It’s a first-century narrative with a healthy dose of 21st-century application. In Mark, we learn how to be a genuine servant and disciple. It is typically lecture-style teaching with class discussion each week.

The Journey

The group is currently studying the Book of Exodus. God never breaks His promises, and He never forgets His people. Through difficult circumstances the Lord used Joseph to bless not only his people, but the people of Egypt too. World empires and world leaders have short memories, however. It was not long until a Pharoah “who did not know Joseph” came to power and enslaved the Israelites for almost 400 years. God saw, He heard, and He acted by raising up a leader named Moses. When the Egyptians let God’s people go, their problems were not over. It did not take long for the Egyptians to second guess their decision and set out after the Israelites to destroy them. God would not let that happen and performed one of the greatest miracles told in the Bible by parting a sea to allow His children to deliver them from the hand of the Egyptians forever. You might think that the Israelites would have been forever grateful, but they had short memories and tested God at every turn. Join us on Sundays as we study how God worked in the lives of the Israelites to deliver, protect, provide, discipline, and teach them by showing them His power, His nature, and His greatness. Teaching is typically lecture style, with video aspects and class discussion each week.

Incouragers

This group is currently doing a study on "What In The World Is Going On?" This group is lecture-style teaching utilizing video, presentations, and group discussion.
