The New Christians class is an ongoing class that rotates through a series of foundational concepts of the faith. No matter when you start, you can jump in right where you are and you won’t miss anything. Sunday mornings during the Bible class hour this group meets in the office. If you're not new to the faith, but you're new to the area, we want to welcome you! Please visit on Sunday morning or Wednesday evening, and join us in the auditorium for the adult class as we go through books of the Bible or topical studies, depending on the quarter. We look forward to meeting you!

Sunday morning Bible classes are available for all ages from 10:00 AM - 10:45 AM. Especially if you are bringing littles, we suggest arriving a little early to give them time to settle in. Please encourage your kids to use the facilities beforehand to minimize getting up and leaving the room during class. For younger children meeting downstairs, please collect your littles from their classrooms after the 10:45 AM bell and lead them back upstairs for the worship service. Cradle Roll (for babies 6 months to 2 years old) is downstairs, next to the lower parking area entrance. Pre-K is downstairs, just to the left of the staircase. K-2nd Grade have a Bible class that meets just past the staircase on the main level. 3rd - 7th Grade meet in 2nd classroom on the 2nd Level (upstairs, to the right, end of the hall). Teen guys have a special class right now, meeting on the 2nd level at the top of the stairs. Teen girls have a special class right now, downstairs and to the right (in the fellowship room).

The New Testament teaches that the Lord Himself adds a person to His church when they are saved (Acts 2:47). So why would someone need to "identify as a member" of a specific congregation? This question is very understandable. There is no one Bible verse that says, “Identify as a member of your local congregation,” or, “Place membership with your local congregation.” However, there are several passages that demonstrate it is the elders’ responsibility to know who identifies as part of the specific flock over whom they are shepherds and overseers (1 Peter 5:1-3, Acts 20)   In today’s age of easy, long-distance travel, some Christians simply roam between congregations for worship without submitting themselves to the leadership of elders, which is not biblical. As individual Christians, we are responsible for acknowledging and submitting to the leadership of the elders in our local congregation (1 Peter 5:5). The elders are to shepherd and look after the souls who in their care. This is an impossible task unless they ask people individually, “Are you committed to working alongside us in THIS congregation of the Lord’s body?” Thus, it is vital for members of the local congregation to open up and commit to building a relationship with their elders, fulfilling the command to submit to their leadership and oversight. These men are committed to humbly serving Christ by serving those in their care. We are to let them do so with joy, by demonstrating an attitude of humility toward them as well (Heb. 13:17).
