ADULT FAITH FORMATION
Because learning to follow Jesus is a lifelong process

Sunday school shouldn't be just for kids, and it shouldn't just be for Sundays, either. We need a range of opportunities to help us continue grow in our faith at every age. After all, your OshKosh B'Gosh overalls don't fit you anymore. It's likely your childhood faith doesn't, either. Join us for one of these adult faith formation opportunities. As always, #QuestionsWelcome...and a diversity of answers, too!

Special Advent Study:
"The First Christmas" by Marcus Borg & John Dominic Crossan
Sundays December 8, 15 & 22 @ 11:30am
​in the library

​The story of Jesus’ birth was never just one story but several, with different communities using them to convey particular parts of their understanding of who Jesus was, what he did, and why. This Advent we’ll spend some time with Biblical scholars Marcus Borg and John Dominic Crossan trying to untangle those strands and recapture some of the deeper meaning of these introductions to the “greatest story ever told.”

Ongoing Bible Study
Sundays @ 11:30am

Picture
We gather most every Sunday after worship, about 11:30am, for simple, personal Bible study--prayerful reading that takes the historical context of the scriptures and the context of our everyday lives today into account as we look for a living and life-giving Word from God in the words of the Bible. It’s a chance to get to know God and one another and maybe even ourselves a little bit better. Walk-ins are more than welcome any Sunday! 

Monthly Men's Fellowship Breakfast
3rd Sundays @ 8:15am

Picture
​Every third Sunday of the month @ 8:15am before worship, the men of the congregation are invited to share a simple breakfast and conversation inspired by the scripture reading and sermon topic for the day. Bacon, eggs, and Bible study: It’s a good thing.

Mindful Meditation
​2nd & 4th Sundays @ 11:30am

Picture
​Every second and fourth Sunday of the month after church, members of our congregation meet for a time of prayerful, mindful meditation. Join us for this time of spiritual centering using a variety of practices and readings as our guide.
