Foundations IV
Francis Schaeffer tells us, "Every person lives with a foot in each of two worlds—the real, external world characterized by its depth and complexity and an internal world of thought shaped by a longing for understanding, love and significance. If these two worlds stand in tension with each other, an individual cannot live meaningfully." Join us for the fourth installment of our Foundations series as we explore how we can best engage our culture as faithful citizens of God’s kingdom. Meets in the sanctuary. Teaching: Melvin Manickavasagam
The Letters of John
Christians are told to not love the world and to love those things that are spiritual., but this often becomes a confusing endeavor, because spiritual things are, well…spiritual. Join us for our study this spring to see how we might rightly order our lives around those things that are spiritual, yet live out those realities in concrete, real ways. Meets in the mezzanine. Teaching: Brian Sorgenfrei

Christ Pres Foundations

a four semester adult Sunday school course

The Foundations Curriculum is a class offered over four semesters at Christ Pres. The class introduces each attender to the most fundamental commitments of our church’s mission. Hope, Home and Healing are each given extended treatment as a way of uncovering the theological and pastoral underpinnings of our church’s life, the "Christ Pres Way."

Semester 1: Scripture, is a walk through the entirety of the Bible, highlighting the unifying structure and themes throughout. Semester 2: Theology, walks through our denominational standards document, the Westminster Confession of Faith, as a way of laying out the beliefs about God, Man and the World. Semester 3: Church & Family, focuses on the word "Home." The doctrine of the church unfolds from the very beginning of God’s plan of redemption. That is, as mankind experiences the effects of ongoing sin, that disease presents itself most clearly in our relationships. But the Gospel is here to restore us, NOT as isolated individuals on our way to heaven when we die (as true as that is), but as a body of people who are united together as God’s people. This class features not only a look at the doctrine of the church, but also consider the topic of marriage, parenting, and conflict management among church members.
