We are presently in a new cycle of Adult Bible Classes. Two classes are offered. One class is based on Carl Trueman's book Crisis of Confidence: Reclaiming the Historic Faith in a Culture Consumed with Individualism and Identity. The other class is based on Mark Vroegop's book Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy. The books for these classes are available for purchase in the bookstore.

Crisis of Confidence: Reclaiming the Historic Faith in a Culture Consumed with Individualism and Identity:​

Historic statements of faith―such as the Heidelberg Catechism, the Apostles’ Creed, the Westminster Confession of Faith, and the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith―have helped the Christian church articulate and adhere to God’s truth for centuries. However, many modern evangelicals reject these historic documents and the practices of catechesis. And yet, in today’s rapidly changing culture, ancient liturgical tradition is not only biblical―it’s essential.

In Crisis of Confidence, Carl Trueman analyzes how creeds and confessions can help the Christian church navigate modern concerns, particularly around the fraught issue of identity. He contends that statements of faith promote humility, moral structure, and a godly view of personhood, helping believers maintain a strong foundation amid a culture in crisis. This is a revised edition of Trueman’s The Creedal Imperative, now with a new section on the rise of expressive individualism.

Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy:

Lament is how we bring our sorrow to God--but it is a neglected dimension of the Christian life for many Christians today. We need to recover the practice of honest spiritual struggle that gives us permission to vocalize our pain and wrestle with our sorrow. Lament avoids trite answers and quick solutions, progressively moving us toward deeper worship and trust in God. 

Exploring how the Bible--through the psalms of lament and the book of Lamentations--gives voice to our pain, this book invites us to grieve, struggle, and tap into the rich reservoir of grace and mercy God offers in the darkest moments of our lives.​​
