Studies & Activities

We offer a great lineup of activities that meet throughout the week. We offer several classes for adults that are aimed to help us develop as Jesus followers in our intellect (head), our passions (heart) and our actions (hands).

Midweek at First Classes

Fall 2024 (8/28 – 12/014; Classes will not meet on 10/16 or 11/27)
We’re offering several discussion-oriented studies designed to help you grow as a Jesus-follower into a difference-maker for a world of people far from God. All studies listed below, as well as programming for children, preschool, and students, begin at 6:00 pm.

Session 2: October 23 – Dec 4

A Leader in the Making with Deron Spoo and Marissa Carter (Room 405 Children's Building)
Leaders are found on nearly every page of the Bible, but few prove more impressive than Joshua. The first five books contain seven scenes from Joshua's early life as he acquires the skills to succeed Moses and succeed as a leader. Whether you are a developing, struggling, or seasoned leader, these skills are timeless reminders of how to follow God faithfully and serve others fruitfully.

Specialty Classes (8/28 – 12/04 unless otherwise indicated):

Men’s Bible Study with Chris Rucker (Room 404 of the Children’s Building)
God designs us as men to lead ourselves and others, but what does that tangibly look like? Throughout the fall, we will explore three New Testament letters to discover ways in which we can grow and lead well. We will look to Paul’s challenges to Timothy and Titus, two young men that he mentored, to explore how we can grow as men.

Women’s Bible Study: When You Pray with Liz Burns (Room 408 of the Children’s Building)
Do you have trouble thinking of words to say to God when you pray? Are you afraid some emotions are too intense to express to God? Do you reach the end of a day only to realize you haven’t prayed at all? You’re not alone. Prayer is the way we relate to God, but sometimes it’s a struggle. Throughout God’s Word, we encounter many voices who teach us how to pray. Through this study you will learn that God welcomes your praise and lament, your thanksgiving and intercession. You’ll see examples of how to pray when you’re alone and when you’re gathered with others. Above all, you’ll notice there’s no one right way to pray. As you draw near to God through prayer, you’ll find your faith strengthened and your heart united to Christ.
